Assigned to the Groep Lichte Vliegtuigen (GpLV, Group Light Aircraft), based at Deelen, the fleet of Dutch Alouette IIIs was often seen at the various bases in the tiny country. A-227 was delivered to the Koninklijke Luchtmacht (Royal Netherlands Air Force) on 2 Nov'64. From 1993 onwards assigned to 300sq, from 1995 to 302sq. It was withdrawn and stored at Woensdrecht from Mar'96. The Alouette III was sold to Heli-Support USA on 27 Jun'96 and became N227RA from 28 Oct'96. From Dec'03 it was owned by Trans Aero Helicopter Services, became SE-HRV in Sweden and later on RA-05701 in Russia.
