Mr Titin, CEO of Belgocontrol, has just declared that Belgocontrol needs a 20 million euros subsidy from the Belgian government. If the Belgian government doesn't own Belgocontrol, why is he asked to pay for it ? It's not a subsidy. All he asks for is that the government pays for the service they r...

Q1: non (pas pour une license "Européenne" )

Q2: correct

How are you going to put privately owned acft on the AOC that is required for your services ?

Quel est le bilan carbone des fraises, des haricots et des fleurs que va nous amener à grand bruit ce vieux coucou », a enfin demandé Bruxelles Air Libre

As if they care about THAT !!

As we all know by now,

Air Libre Bruxelles can say whatever they want, because Belgian press will gladly take it over without any doubts...

Over and over again...

Yes it could. Consider the damage of a small bird on take-off and then think about the size and mass of the balloon casket+occupants.

But the article does underestimate the manoevring capabilities of ACFT. And it's rather easy to spot hot-air balloons while in flight...

Here we go again...

another spectacular title for a non-event.

A Pringles box and a Maes beer.

I agree with you totally. And I'm convinced that everybody at Vnukovo did a great job. Indeed we always have to assume the worst case scenario. I just wish the press would at least try to remain objective. Just write that an aircraft suffered from a fuel leak, had to return to the airport and the si...

You seem to miss my point. Fuel leaks, together with other circumstances, CAN lead to a crash (Concorde) or they don't (Air Transat). There is no rule that says that every acft with a fuel leak will crash. But this is what the article wants you to believe. Air crashes are just too complicated to red...

The air traffic controllers of Vnukovo Airport in Moscow have prevented a crash of a passenger liner IL-86 belonging to the air company Atlant-Soyuz and flying from Moscow to Egypt. There you have your fairy tale. I don't see any hard facts in that. Remember the Air Transat A330 over the Atlantic w...

You can't just reduce the cause of a plane crash to a single event. No, Concorde did not crash because of a fuel leak. That attributed for about 70% to a deadly crash. You need to mention the chain of events which start at a piece of metal on the rwy-in-use, a double engine flameout on a supersonic ...

I flew AUI from Brussels to Kiev. Nice crew and good service.

Otherwise I fly Malev via Budapest (B737 NG or F70)

Never flew LOT, so I don't know about them...

The Jet Airways B737 didn't come directly from BFI, but made a stopover in
Gander.

It's hidden at the LH-technics hangar, just beside the World DC10.

Probably visible from the Haachtsesteenweg...

Unique visitor today:

Jet Airways B737-700 VT-JGZ

+/- 11u30 arrival

Thanks for considering the tall passenger behind you. Wish more people did the same...

Nothing unusual about a "go-around"...

27R is not closed. It's visual approach only.

EBOS, EBKT

But they are also expensive...
