Hi there and my first post.

Whilst on holiday at Sunny Beach I noted three AS532 Cougars flying in formation towards Bourgas on Friday 22nd August. Does anybody know which ones they were?

Probably they were from the Bulgarian Air Force. They are based in our base on Plovdiv Airport.

I guessed that but I wondered if anybody knew what their serials were as I didn't take my telescope down to the beach that day :cry:

All of the Bulgarian Cougars so far have registrations from 701 through 706. I'm not sure about their serial numbers though.... :?

Arguments elsewhere about the distinction between serials (as carried by military aircraft) and registrations (which are carried by civil aircraft) is one that pretty well floats past me.

However, I seem over the past few years to have missed identifying a good number of helicopters whilst sunning myself on the beach or swimming in the sea and I would dearly love to know which three Cougars these were.

These Cougars were pretty active in the past few months especially during summer. I think there was some kind of military excercise in late August taking place at Balchik and the surrounding areas. I was there on one of those days and shot some Cougars but I will have to check the date and their serials as I get home tonight.

That would be brilliant if you could check, thanks
