Christmas Detail - Part One


A Miramar Xmas detail presents AW-139 D BuNo 16059 of HSC-21 Blackjacks to RADM I. Harcassle at NSTC, Dec. 16.




















RADM Isaac Harcassle ordered three new AW-139 D helicopters for HSC-21, the Blackjacks, to be stationed at NAF Avignon. The order was processed by NAS Miramar and the aircraft were registered there under BuNos 16059, 16060 and 16061. The 059 in the photo was presented as the flagship to RADM Harcassle on December 16, at NSTC Velinissimo, flown from Miramar by a "Xmas Detail" made of CDR Asra "Cougar" Kron and LTJG Chardy "Hinch" Oak, in full Season's Greetings gear!

The other two Zero Zero helicopters display a Navy Gray livery (BuNo 16060) and a Navy Ghost livery (BuNo 16061) also "2 stars" aircraft assigned to the RADM personally and as such with the distinctive unique "Jacktail" as the two tone flagship.

BuNo's 16060 and 16061 ready for delivery at Miramar, Dec. 17.
