October 20 2004: bad luck for the diversion @ EBBR.

Post by Skystef »

Hi all,

yesterday evening around 20:30, a quite severe thunderstorm passed EBBR repeated again around midnight. On the first burst half a dozen diversions from Paris (same thunderstorm) came to EBBR, but bad luck struck them, as they were washed out by heavy rain & thunder.

Some pics taken from my ivory tower ;).

An easyJet plane at BRU is certainly a rare view. Congratulations for the picture of the lightning!

That are some really interesting pictures, thank you for sharing.

It seems that the stormfront moved to the northeast, because here in the Eastern part of Holland it started to thunder at about 22pm-23pm. :wink:

Great pictures, thanks a lot!

About the EZY A319: hope to see much of those at BRU in the future...

Hello

Except the fact that the only diversion of CDG,that is not a regular
visitor @BRU,is only an Easy Jet 319,you did made some incredibly
nice shots of the lightning,and the evening-sfear at BRU.

Really like night-pictures.

More night-photo's asked. :lol:

Those are very nice pictures you've taken Stef.

And the Easyjet A319 is indeed a nice surprise :)
