CH-53 visiting NRN/EDLV Airport Weeze

[Zonan]

Had a nice visitor yesterday for a fuel stop.
Lovely crew gave us a tour around and inside the aircraft before taking a coffee.
After telling them we would be back in the tower for departure they decided to fly a bit closer to us
Video at the end as well

Thanks for sharing these, some great shots of a superb machine. It's a shame that we don't see these regularly in the UK now.

Great viewing
I've always loved the Jolleys and your fabulous captures really do them justice.
The last shot is an absolute triumph and I'd vote for it if you entered the competition!
Thanks for sharing them

Superb photos of (in my aviation life time) the original "Growler", before the name was hijacked by the F-18.

As others had said the last shot is amazing and captures the power of this beast, if that was the only shot I ever got of the 53 that would be it.
