Re: BRU 25/01/2012

SUNJET Falcon 20 N189RB was out on the main GA ramp in the morning, along with 2 x G450's N494EC & N500J but as to a 3rd Grumman I cannot help. Also noted at 8.30 were CH850 OE-ILY and Legacies HB-JEL & S5-ALA, LJ60 Z3-MKD, TBM LX-JFO and Excel CS-DXE. I am afraid you will have to pick out t...

Re: BRU 07/12/2011

My trip on 25/11 was about 60% full, with return on 2/12 a bit less. Unlike the legs to/from Hong Kong which had very few empty seats anywhere in the cabin.

Re: BRU 05/12/2011

would be rather strange that a National Assembly Chairman travels in a triple 7. Why? Political leaders often travel in their countries big jets (recent visit to Belgium by Cameron (UK PM) on a Virgin 346 and Blair used a BA Triple) if they have no specific government aircraft. Vietnam triples have...

Re: BRU 11/11/2011

Nearly missed the An12! I went to BRU at 11.30 and could not see it as it had obviously left its stand for departure. I was near GA when a familiar rumble could be heard as it departed (11.45) leaving 4 smoky trails in its wake. Also departing just before was THY A321 TC-JRO in special markings. Pre...

Re: BRU 21/10/2011

Note: an Airbus of Tap is heading to Londen Heathrow If that picture was taken from the GA area at BRU then I would suggest that the TAP is on a southerly course heading home? If it were London bound it would be heading away from you. TAP flights to southern UK will arrive from over Brittany and th...

Re: BRU 04/10/2011

Or maybe it was the C-17 he heard as the Grumman had been in from late afternoon.

Serial of the C-17 is 04-4137. Not its first visit to Brussels as I first saw it in Jan 2007.

Re: BRU 03/10/2011

Oops! I was trying to multitask when I sent my post - yes it is a 319 but the serial is 2101 I believe?

Re: BRU-LBA on BD (Bad BMI experience part 2)

I was wondering how much your hotels cost in Leeds compared to the cost of a taxi from LBA to the beautiful seaside town of Scareborough or is it just too far/expensive? You obviously love Belgium (although having visted both Scarborough & Oostende I would prefer Scarborough - much more to see &...

Re: BRU 02/09/2011

Why do you post them without any arrival or departure time ? I knew that all those planes would come today but from most of them I didn't know the ETA or ETD. So if you don't know the ETA or ETD. you better shut up..... ;) Of course I knew both arrival and departure times but there is no real point...

Re: BRU 20/08/2011

you could try this link http://www.brussels.be/artdet.cfm/4090 or just google "Brussels events" and you will get all theinfo you need about Brussels - or did you mean to ask if there were interesting visitors at BRU/EBBR Brussels Airport?
