Post by sn26567 » 16 May 2018, 17:53 it's about VLM celebrating the ANR-LCY-ANR route for 25 years now It looks more like a re-election campaign of the Mayor of Antwerp for the upcoming municipal elections Well , if that also leads to extra promotion for VLM it's OK, I would think. :) In any case ,...

Re: The Trump administration and aviation

Trump does it again: he exits the nuclear deal on Iran. Thus, the US government plans to seek to reimpose sanctions on Iran, leaving little hope that Boeing and Airbus will be able to consummate US$40 billion in aircraft deals struck by Iranian carriers during the brief trade thaw. Both companies’ ...

Re: Air Belgium in 2018

Hopefully at least SLM is paying their bills timely and they can do some additional flights. What about CARGO? An A340 without pax can load some 38 Tons of cargo ,if I'm n...

How can they manage all these new destinations with only four aircraft operational. Will the fleet be extended soon ?
I guess a fifth F-50 (OO-VLZ) should become operational any of the coming weeks... no?
