Interesting allegation. And how -exactly- do you measure the return on investment ? Just for the 2 variety programs on Flemish tv, they've got 6,5 minutes prime time: 4 minutes on VTM (kind of RTL) and 2,5 minutes on VRT (counterpart RTBf). I haven't counted the number of times that "Thomas Co...

Please go back to the very first post here, and read one of the many articles about this story. Brussels Airlines says it's force majeure - overmacht. It is not . A strike by a private contractor is never "hand of God" (apparently the English term for force majeure / overmacht). A strike b...

Some selfish passengers don't understand that the interest of the airline have precedence over their own comfort. Allow me to disagree. Going on a 4-day breakaway with luggage is not "comfort": it's basic. Also, if the interest of an airline differs from the interest of the passengers, th...

Arrival SN2815R at 22h29 (BRU-BRU?)

http://www.solarimpulse.com live coverage says he's just waiting for landing clearance by ATC. There is a bit too much other traffic at this very moment.

Everything is going very very well, they say.

It seems that the landing gear of an empty Fokker-50 failed whilst the aircraft was just parked on the tarmac.
