I'm trying to find out where or what has happened to EC-HHD (7357), an Agusta A109 MKII

It started off on the 'N' register then moved to the Cayman and onto an 'EC' reg. now possible on the German register; does any know anything?

Just did a quick search here:

Helionline Database for AgustaA109 Mk II (http://www.helionline.net/222-877337-749457/photogallery/4.html)
but couldn`t find the requested S/N.

A quick google search for the c/n came up with a call sign "D-HRFF" but no further search results for that.

A109A Mk II sn 7357: N90GA > N109JD > VR-CCK > EC-HHD > D-HRFF

There is a possibility that this aircraft may (and I emphasise may) have been withdrawn from use.

This is the ex-Tarmac aircraft which used to be managed by Manfred Mann!

That would be a shame, the last I know it was an Air Ambulance in Spain (I think). I've looked for it on the German reg. but cannot find it there.

When it was with Tarmac, thats when I know it. Pilot Derek Mann.

Very good.

You can see a photo of her as VR-CCK on page 6 (http://www.pprune.org/rotorheads/443466-alan-mann-helicopters-nostalgia-thread-6.html) of the Mann Thread.

To looking for in the spanish register that's your page:
RNAC (http://www.aire.org/rnac/)

And here the info about the EC-HHD:
RNAC Registro Espaol de Aeronaves Civiles desde 1920 (http://www.aviacioncomercial.net/rnac/search.php?lng=esp&orden=asc&buscar=HHD&campo=register&primary=1&secondary=101)

You can see this 109 left Spain in 2005 with D-HRFF reg.

Edit:
I have found another 109 that left Spain in 2005 with D-HRFD reg. (previusly EC-HIO):
RNAC Registro Espaol de Aeronaves Civiles desde 1920 (http://www.aviacioncomercial.net/rnac/search.php?lng=esp&orden=asc&buscar=HIO&campo=register&primary=1&secondary=101)

That 109 is in the Rotorflug´s fleet now, maybe it could help you to find it.

Maybe it had a similar fate as this one...

I note that the yellow strip of Tarmac is still on VP-CCK as was in the picture of it in Spain.
