Re: Brussels Airlines in 2024
I thought that the service to JFK was daily but there is no SN501 planned today. Too bad because the flights to the US usually provide the reserve aircraft as these flights are cancelled when needed to support the ops to Africa. In the absence of a disposable SN501 today and no other a/c available, ...

Re: Brussels Airlines' fleet renewal
Well, the good news is that OO-SFC is back from MAN where she spent more than 3 months. I saw her arriving on Saturday evening, still wearing the classic BeeLine livery. SN long haul fleet indeed shows a nice aero-diversity : = Four (4) birds with the classic BeeLine. OO-SFC, -D, -E, -G. = One (1) b...

Re: Brussels Airlines' fleet renewal
OO-SFC apparently extends its English stay... OO-SFF will go to MAN on Friday for C-check and OO-SFC will return home on Friday. D-AIKG did a test flight on the 29th of April but still not confirmed when the aircraft will be ferried to Brussels. And if it is not enough, OO-SFX, A330 had AOG at BRU....

Re: Anomalies in BRU-ANR-CRL-KJK-LGG-OST in 2024
I suppose visibility issues, while in Antwerp the sky is clear ? Dense fog. I understand the density of fog but why is UA 999 diverted when just behind it DL140 lands...the airport has the same equipment for both planes...the two planes have different equipment? The only two flights that had to hol...

Re: Brussels Airport (BRU) infrastructure: future
I hope they will use the opportunity to build a soundwall around the whole airport. There will be a sound wall, at least at the most sensitive areas. .... Reminds me of the visit of the A Pier that we organized a couple of days before its opening. The Airport Tour guide, a former FE at SN, pointed ...

Re: 2024 Ostend-Bruges Airport (OST/EBOS) latest news
EBOS is about to re-open on Thursday 28MAR as planned. Calibration flight was done today, primarily for the new PAPI systems.

Nice pic, thanks. So OO-SBC has grey smarties, like OO-SFH. OO-SBA has green smarties. Is it because it is the NEO lead ship and will be the only one in this colour scheme?
