For those who would want to know more about the 'wet sock smell' ( polluted bleed air ) onboard aircraft ( e.g. B757, Bae146, F100, F70, F50 ...

Lowest level depends on the holding navaid ( FLO - KERKY - BUN - ANT e.g. ): usually varies between FL80 and FL100. Vertical separation 1000 feet.

Hello Leedseagle,

This isn't a B737 it's the FIRST ERJ170 from BA G-LYCD
You are lucky :)

Negtive, that's an A320. Check the ...

Looks like OO-JAP ?
Cool pic !

I agree with Air Key West. Please close topic.

Thank you,

As from what i heard the 744 is in technical, which is why they're sending multiple 738's and Atlas Blue aircraft. There must be someone able to confirm what's up with the 744 ?!

Yes, no doubt, HLN are experts at giving incomplete information... They prefer being the first to publish i.s.o. giving complete and correct information. How HLN is, and continues to be the most popular newspaper beats me sometimes :p

That's because both airlines operate flights for each other since their marriage , flight could've been a Vueling flight number.

Also seen today F-GZZA B737-86N Axis airways flying for JAF. ( http://www.planepictures.net/netshow.php?id=858275 )

OO-JAP is named "Crystal" . Performed a take-off ( at about 1645LT i think ) with no gear retraction, flew towards the Belgian coast and toured overhead central Belgium and the coast for 3-4 hours, then made a missed approach on 25L at about 2110LT, and landed some 10 minutes later. Plane looks very ...

Hey guys,

How about someone posts a picture of the RAK airways aircraft here in EBBR ? This discussion is going nowhere ! Customers will decide in the end which is the best airline. Time will tell.

Greetz,
JM

LOL !! Maybe they should check airliners.net or planepictures.net a bit more often . Surely we would be able to find a pic of the A380 in BEL colours !

( never mind, double post :p )

Maybe this post on another forum can shed some light on all things involved in a runway change:

http://www.pprune.org/atc-issues/366521-runway-change-atcs-point-view.html

You'll see that 25 to 40 minutes for a runway change is not that abnormal at a larger aerodrome...

very interresting page ...

On peut quand même faire deux remarques à ce propos :
- il y a eu une erreur du contrôleur, qui a mal estimé la différence de vitesse entre le Cessna et le 747.
- la piste 02 n'aurait plus dû être en service vu la direction du vent, mais, à BRU, il faut de 25 à 40 minutes pour mettre en place un ...

I was in my house and saw it happen: the Atlanta icelandic broke off the approach before passing the OM at about 1730LT, so he must still have been at +- 2000ft, and immediately started climbing before turning left to approximately heading 250. I swear to all Brussels airport haters: never was there ...
