Re: BRU 18/12/2010

Just heard BBC017 (Biman Bangladesh) on my scanner approaching BRU.

Should be CS-TFM B772 according to casper.

A diversion from Heathrow ?


Edit: found this on Heathrow's website:

Re: Steenokkerzeel - finally! - wants to build a spotter's p

25R then ? Or is the 25L threshold also in Steenokkerzeel ?

Anyways, good news, curious for the outcome.

And I agree with Jan, why is security control needed ? Or do they want us to pay to park our cars there ?

Sarkozy is on his way.
Just passed KERKY as CTM0001. Not sure whether it's the A319 or A330.

Italian Air Force A319CJ MM62209 as I9002 also approaching BRU.

Royal Danish Air Force as DAF002 approaching 25R, should be a CL-604.

Re: OS improves inflight experience, including meals

I flew with OS (BRU-VIE-ROV) in 2008 and got a (very tasteful) hot meal on each leg, so it seems this no-food policy has not lasted a long time.

Let's hope SN will get similar improvements.
