hi there, I plan to go to Ghana (Accra) shortly on SN. I had COVID not long ago. the airline tells me that my certificate of recovery will trump a positive PCR test - which I suspect I will get given that COVID lives in your body for a while... so, while I think there's reasonable chances I should b...

Air Belgium operating a flight from BRU/Doha tonight? Any idea why?

Unions yesterday issued a strike notice (warning?) for cabin crew, starting 26th August. No agreement was reached during the negotiations. hi there, I understand there's talk about Brussels airlines cabin crew striking in the coming days. How reliable is that information? I've got a flight booked n...

hi there, I understand there's talk about Brussels airlines cabin crew striking in the coming days. How reliable is that information? I've got a flight booked next Saturday 28 August, and it would be pretty anonying if it got delayed or worse... cancelled Thanks for any information you can provide Dom

Wow. What kind of cargo, do you think? And would this be Covid-related? I assume Virgin sees this as an opportunity to make some money?

This evening, around 7pm, a Virgin Airlines 787 landed on RWY 01/02. Anyone knows why it's here?

And again today. Is this some Covid19 related flight (charter), or a regular service? Funny it routes via Brussels

So you mean they would've let the wheel spin until the pilots think it's stopped and then retract it?

Thanks.

3. Why would they deactivate the break?

Thanks

Hi, Just landed on SN255 from Bru to Ouagadougou. 1. The plane kept flaps 1 - is this so air can circulate better around the wing for cooling? 2. On take off to Ivory Coast, it literally backtracked and reversed at the end of the runway, and waited at least 15 minutes or so. Other airplanes and a he...

Is this news-worthy? Anything interesting behind this story?

Does anyone know why so many planes are parked in this area? Doesn't seem like it's a temporary parking space. Clearly the Finair and Baltic are moving passengers. I'd the airport so busy this morning or something? Thanks

Well if they were US'an (or at least NATO), as I suspected, that would explain they knew what to do to legally cross the SHAPE airspace. Why they wanted to fly there is still a bit of a mistery... Also, if they can afford to use a jet for this type of flight, I can see no lack of military budgets :...

I couldn't say, but he is mighty close to violating the reserved airspace around the NATO installations at Casteau... Photography seems little likely, but perhaps (procedural) training? NB if you have ever stood next to a CL604, you won't call it a "little" jet anymore :) Thanks. I though...

This little jet took off in Nuremberg and has been flying low altitude for a while. Anyone knows what he's up to? Taking pics? Sampling the territory?

Can someone explain what this means? Thought air Belgium lost Chinese partner and was going to focus on ACMI, not scheduled flights? Thanks

There's an air India 747 in one of the hangars right if 25R, I see.

Why?

BRU proofs that they are fine for high and low yield, for low cost and legacy, ànd for whatever aircraft. Vueling and easyJet reduced their ops at BRU significantly, Ryanair doesn’t expand and Brussels Airlines is struggling to survive. The climate doesn’t look that healthy to me. No healthy climat...

This morning, red devils a320 and rackham A320 were following each other en route to CDG. 15 mins apart, tops. Is this normal schedul? Or just meeting abnormal demand? Would've thought those flights are near empty, at least on the outbound.

And tonight another Turkish A330. Assume same reason? Is Turkish the only one needing to upgauge planes to meet capacity?
