Stefonivikieo
Must have missed this in the news last year but apparently this airport is closed. Not sure if this is permanent. Apparently October last year the place got flooded after heavy rainfall which also damaged multiple helicopters. Today the place still looked flooded with the main road being closed and entrance empty. All helicopters should be relocated to elsewhere.
Re: Stefonivikieo
It happened early September, some helicopters were affected exact numbers and types have never been disclosed as far as I know. The rest(most), of the helicopters were flown out to Nea Anchialos, Larissa, Thessaloniki and Alexandreia. I thought limited operations were still being carried out from the base, I’m sure the USArmy have been operating out of there also.

Some Apaches were visible in the distance at Larissa & indeed, all approach roads to LGSV were closed & guarded by Army personnel.
Re: Stefonivikieo
The preserved helicopter in town was or set on fire by vandals or maybe hit by lightning, but is now a blackened, burned wreck on a pole.
