The meal was good and the Cabin crew was very happy and crazy :?
Something like This ( By Inflight shopping ) '' Stewardessen te koop , ze strijken goed wassen goed en ze staan aan 50 procent '' Or other crazy things.
Picture during overflying our favourite spotters place on 25L : http://coppermine.luchtzak.be/albums/us ... ng%208.jpg

Picture At The Asylum center ( Aziel ) also a Good Spotting place : http://coppermine.luchtzak.be/albums/us ... ng%209.jpg

21.37 : Touch down in Brussels after a good flight ( the crazy cabin crew said it was a landing on auto pilot :D )
When we were leaving the plane I forgot my Thomas cook cap :( :(
And the crazy cabin crew said : Tot binnen 5 dagen , de piloot : Je bent weer aan het rammelen met de mensen hun voeten :)

It was a good flight and a great airport to spot !

Madeira is a spotters paradise ,
1 )A Non standard approach
2 ) 2 terraces
3 ) Good place's on a road where you can take good pics
4 ) No gate ... So you can take pics from your aircraft.
and The Island is verry nice :D
( nice flowers :!: )
