+1 :D
When in doubt, hold on to your altitude. No-one has ever collided with the sky.

Why not going at the top of the Cinquantenaire/Jubelpark? Plane will fly straight to this direction if it's the same than in 2011 (no idea of last year, I wasn't in Brussels at this time)

If I was around, I would give it a try at the esplanade of the Palace of Justice. There you have a nice overview over the western part of Brussels and especially over the airspace. Furthermore you're a bit South of the Warande park and therefore the sun will be in your back when viewing the aircraft.

Cinquantenaire is for sure NOT in the axis this year (rehearsal took place on Tuesday). it was much on the right of it (just over pl des Palais, I guess).

Thanks for the list. All of the above will take-off and land at Brussels then?

I assume there will also be quite some foreign visitors which will arrive somewhere on Saturday or Sunday early morning?

Only the above are landing in Brussels (A400M not known yet) all the other aircraft are returning to their home bases, Florennes, Kleine-Brogel and Beauvechain (Bevekom).

Heard through the grapevine that traffic returning to Brogel and/or Florennes would also do a pass over EBST...
