From 1951 to 2006 the "Marineluchtvaartdienst" (MLD) has been operating Lockheed patrol aircraft. The PV/2 Harpoon, the P2V5 Neptune, The P2V7B Neptune, the SP2H Neptune and the great P3CII Orion. 1969 tlll 1984 the Breguet SP13A Atlantic was in the inventory as well. All history now and no replacements to patrol the western waters. Funny negligence of interests.

A compilation of pictures from 1940 to 2015. Extra attention given to the colouring of the sometimes old pictures. My period ranges from 1963 HNLMS Karel Doorman to 1991 the great Lockheed P3CII Orion. I was a Tacco on the Grumman S2A Tracker, the Lockheed SP2H Neptune, the Breguet SP13A Atlantic and the Lockheed P3CII Orion. What a great time it was.

Most of the original 13 Nl P3CII Orions are still flying , now in the Portuguese Airforce. The Netherlands sold its "ëyes over the sea" and now wonders wat...
