I was going threw my collection of aviation photos and suddenly I saw a beautiful picture of one of the last Belgian Seakings... In about 2 years theyll be gone, so lets enjoy of that magnificent helicopter while it's still possible.

I thought they were updating the electronics on the Seaking :confused: Do you know what Belgium plan to replace them with ?

The Belgian Defense ordered 10 heli's of NHIndustries (NH-90). They'll replace the Seakings used now... Otherwise said, the seaking is going to leave the belgian airforce in about 2 year... :(

I like the photo and you have an interesting subject, my only suggestion is to get the entire propellor blade in the shot
