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 It was withdrawn and stored at Woensdrecht from Mar'96.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.

Added to the fleet of 299sq in '83, this B-83 was a deviating KLu Bolkow as it was a former KLM Helikopters machine. The '73 built helicopter flew earlier as G-BCTE, D-HDCH and PH-DCH, before it became PH-NZH with KLM. The Bo was easily recognised within the 299sq fleet as its skids were extended rearwards compared to the other Bo's of 299sq. B-83 was used as a testbed for various tests. In '96 it was modified to Bo105CB. In Apr'00 is was withdrawn from use at Gilze Rijen and sold to Star Air Service (Teuge) in October 2003. On 13 Sep'07 it moved to Neuhausen ob Eck (Germany), where it was noted in open storage in 2020 - see other photo.

K-4030 was kept in flyable storage after its operational career with the Koninklijke Luchtmacht (Royal Netherlands Air Force) before it was sold and flown over to Venezuela as 6372 on 2 March 1993.

It was kept in a flyable storage for possible sale but was eventually stored and became an instructional airframe at the Anthony Fokker School in The Hague in the early 90s. It then moved to the National Aviation College in Hoofddorp in the mid-90s. After the NF-5 became useless, it was transported to the National Military Museum at Soesterberg for preservation from early 2019. Of notice on this picture is the grey (new?) wing attached the camouflaged fuselage.
