Registration database for this website

[luchtzak]

Hi all,

with pleasure I announce that a part of the Belgian registrations is allready available thanks to liebensd (Dave)!! You can check it at https://www.aviation24.be/modules.php?name ... ries&cid=5

To make it easier to work I have given Dave an administrator-function. Sabena_690 will of course remain the forum administrator whilst Beco is still in charge of the news submissions. Still looking for someone who would love to administrate the Weblinks! ( https://www.aviation24.be/modules.php?name ... opic&t=636 )

greetings,

Bart

Congrats, Dave. I realise it is a big job and it will take time to complete it, but I'm sure you will succeed.

Look for cooperation from Aerobel: they have already a very nice, although incomplete, database.

André,

The system of Aerobel is taking pictures and find some information. The meaning of the Luchtzak database is to be complete whiteout pictures.

Combining full information with pictures would be marvelous

I am looking for which Belgian airline was operating the DC-8-55 (c/n 45854) registered OO-PHA .

It also carried the following registrations in succession: JA8017, N910R, 5N-AUS, N81906, C-FFUK, N81906, OO-PHA, N819SL, 3D-AIA.

Thanks in anticipation

That's a difficult one...

It's broken up 8 years ago at LUX, after being registered for African Intl Airways.

Will try to get some info, will nothing promisse.

I got it, thanks to Dave: Skyjet!

That completed my search for the companies oerating DC-8s in Belgium

OO-TCP: Pomair Ostend
OO-AMI and OO-CMB: BIAS International
OO-PHA: Skyjet

Dear André,

I don't believe Skyjet actually "operated" the dc-8, and although it (probably) had this Belgian registration, i suppose it didn't move an inch in the States.
It surely was never seen in Belgium, and i am still waiting for a photoproof of this plane. The same could be said of B737's OO-PHC, OO-PHE, OO-PHF and OO-PHG of the same company.
Skyjet (Belgium) was formed on 15/10/90 and they had ambitious plans with these 5 aircraft.
But i believe the first flying object for this company was a JAT B727 YU-AKK, which was operated between July 1991 and October 1991. I even made a photo of it @ BRU.
Then in 1992 newly formed Skyjet (Antigua) received their first DC-10 V2-LEA later transferred to Skyjet (Belgium) as OO-PHN, "many" DC-10 would follow later on.
The story of Skyjet is a very interesting one as other "subsidiaries" like Skyjet (Brasil), Skyjet (France) also saw some light....
