FQ9140?

Post by liebensd »

This evening I went spotting at EBLG (Liege), there was a Thomas Cook flight FQ9140. I saw the aircraft it passed several times the airport, approximately 6 times, but did not land. The flight was from Pisa. There was one departure a Bea 146 of TNT and 3 landings, a A300 of TNT a 747-400F of China Southern Cargo and a CAL 747-200F. They arrived at this sequence the Thomas Cook aircraft arrived after the TNT A300, it was strange, does someone know the reason for this?

Greetz,

Bart,

No it made several hoverfly’s but did not land for aprox 30 min, I was about 150meters from the runway. The other planes that made hoverfly’s landed, and the Thomas Cook aircraft needed to land because is was on the airports arrival list.

Greetz,

Dave

Maybe it had some problems and made some overflys while trying to solve it.

I will let you see a picture if I get my pictures. I hope that they are ok because at that moment the sun was not shining a lot anymore, I used a convector on the lens to I need the double of light to have a good picture. Just at the moment that the Thomas Cook A320 crossed a 747.
