Just a 'regular' A330-200 is on its way: A7-ACJ.
Don't sell the skin till you've caught the bear.

It's also easy to shoot the messenger... This flight was indeed loaded into the GDS as an Airbus A330-300, we should be thankful that someone has taken the burden to check this and inform us about this. It's unfortunate that the information was later amended (shortly before departure), and no A330-300 will be visiting us.

However, we should appreciate members who post information like this and especially remember the things which are indeed correct, and this is most of the time. I cannot help but noticing that the biggest part of your limited amount of posts are of a purely criticizing nature, based on hindsight. I do not remember any post made by you which has given us some information, other than just commenting on small mistakes some other people make.

For myself, and for others as well I suppose, it is very frustrating that we are 'shot down' every time we make a small mistake, however do not receive any special credit for the correct information we give most of the time... This leads to a 'what's-the-point-mentality' and in the end, nobody will post any information, as they are afraid of making a mistake. Just wanted to let you know, since this is bothering me for quite a while now. Thanks for understanding my frustration.

By the way, according to the info we have now, QTR941 on Feb 25th will be A330-300.

Lufti was totally right. A7-AEE was initially planned, but in last minute Qatar needed it on the line AUH-ARN. So they send us A7-ACJ as replacement.
Don't criticise too fast... that's already enough the case on the forum...

Not to mention the flights that are not listed overhere. I can't read anything about the IL76 in BRU for example ...

@snrj85,
note that not all flights are visible to everyone thru the BRU CDB, thus no info on them.

BTW, if you're familiar with aviation and aviation operations, you would know that a last minute change is always possible.

And about the bear and his skin : if memory serves well( have no dictionary on hand) , the English version is : don't count you're chickens before you've hatched them

It has been said already a lot, but you should be happy with the info that is being shared by our members.

But I know, it is much easier to criticise from behind your computer screen. If that is your only "contribution" to this forum, you better keep it to yourself.
Tot hier en verder

Why don't you just get off your high horse and post that info yourself!? It's easy to criticize others if you don't bother posting anything of value yourself... still waiting for your first contribution to this forum actually.

Hello,

If you know the site http://www.scramble.nl take a look at it for your IL76.
But I did that already for you so here it is RA-76638. To be 100% correct the tail is white with the Russian flag on it + 224 with a bleu circle and under that RA-76638. To be fully correct the plane has got 4 engines.
Greetings,
All my posted timings are local !
