Hi, 1. Was it hot where you were flying? The 330 tends to give a wing overheat warning in hot environments thats why they lower the flaps to let the air circulate and thus cooling the trailing edge . 2. Probably what you saw was a air starter so thats why one engine was started at the gate already. ...

Breaking somebody else's strike is bad form - it simply is not done. If you have ever worked on the floor, been a member of a union, you know that. As far as I see SN's employees made shure there companie just didn't went into a bad start of the year. Don't forget the numbers for SN wheren't that g...

As a rule, I surely am no supporter of strikers - but, on the other hand, for the Brussels Airlines ground staff to break their colleagues' strike is nothing to be proud of (and another time, it could be the other way round). Common serious collegues?? 2 total different companies, should brussels a...

I think that the SN management is doing a good job. You need indeed 4 or 5 TP on the thin routes. but if you use these on the big routes your done playing you will go back to the old DAT then. Wich is not affordable for brussels airlines for what it is today and not 10 years ago. Never forget AFRICA...

A go-around is instructed by ATC
A pilot declares a missed approach.

@ congolaise I think SNBA is waiting to see whats the outcome of the elections in november. As katanga is a fairly peacefull region (I heard) there are no problems at this moment except for the shooting at the airport a few months ago. But as you know after elections that can change fairly quick. An...

I'll even say more african mechanics are trained at this moment at brussels and yes there will be mechanics from belgium there but for one main reason these mechanics know the aircraft inside out bottom to top so they are there to just for there know how. And I know that also african crew is already...

Spotted both korongo aircraft still in hangar 117

2nd A320 is arrived BTW in front of hangar 41

Yes there is personnel of brussels airlines already in DRC. An for the blacklisting I don't know it would be very strange to me because these aircraft are still brussels airlines property operated and maintained by brussels airlines personnel. Also the registration of the aircrafts will stay belgian...

A 319 but the registration i don't know :p

have fun though and maybe I see you boarding :p

Bye

Just to clarify these are standards only for the USA as you will find only the Inerting system on aicrafts flying into the united states. Easa also have such a program but its far more relax then the rules FAA lays down. So no panic I would say.

OO-LTM left this week for the new paint job so I suppose it wont to long take to long anymore.

OO-SNA delivered today togheter with OO-SSQ the both airplanes are in front of Hangar 117 OO-SNA though with old registration number one it but i suppose they will remover the sticker one of these days as it is registered as from today apparently.

Info apparently OO-DJK will go into C-check next month march for face out of the aircraft.

I've no idea what time it will land. Indeed OO-SSR already in brussels for the moment in hangar 117 for refurnishing of the cabin new light wheight recaro seats are installed in their.

And OO-SSQ will arrive this week on friday where it will go into hanger 117 untill +- 20/02.

dear regy, As you maybe know an aircraft technician is not only moral responable for his job but also in a court of law this is called men slaughter. I know some examples of old class mates who got woke up out of bed by the federal police to answer some questions. I don't think an lorry mechanic see...

Hello, I'm also happy to work for SN but at the maintenance department we also get well underpaid for the responsabilities we have you may never forget we are the persons who garantuee you a save flight or anyway responsable for it. If you see our work roster you will think oh no what is this. if I ...

I think that korongo will go on one way or another and this for following reasons. 1. Air Dc was in coop with hewa bora where now korongo will be an independent airline operating from lumbumbashi instead of kinshasa. 2. As you all may now lumbumbashi is the place where the mines ar in Congo Maybe yo...
