I agree, although I have my reservations as to whether or not this bill will pass through all government stages.

When you come in fast and you flare, the aircraft initially enters a climb while its airspeed drops dramatically (engines are on idle). Seeing the speed nearing the stall speed and the height increasing, the pilot will need to apply a bit of power and maintain the nose-up in order to land

FLY4HOURS.BE , I agree with TUB001's comment.

I suggest you go fly 4 hours, you're going to need them...

Bru.AIr management might sometimes show very weak moments but I am pretty sure they are doing something about it.
Alot of selections took place the last months and some candidates are still in the process.
Many fresh first officers will get a 50 days lasting training course starting from 30th July ...

Many of you may thing why does it work for Ryanair, very simple
since they only fly to secondary airports they have no jetways, rarely need pushback and they always deboard and board via 2 stairways on to the aircraft, not having a seatticket has also an influence because people rush to have a ...

Every employee has a certain amount of courses to follow each year.Human factors, Jar-ops , sim checks , first aid , etc,... each with a minimum pas rate of 75%. Which is not easy to do. Most courses are nice thick books and have to be learned in a minimum time.

You're exagerrating just a little ...

No, maxi single only

artists need to make a living too...

Vangelis - Conquest of Paradise

from the movie "1492- Conquest of Paradise"

ex-Volare EI-CTD? That would be serial number 085...

I wonder in what condition this aircraft will be...

in an article that appeared in Trends today, they mention that Macquarie would like to attract more low-cost companies to BRU and that a long haul connection with Asia is on top of their wish list.

Hopefully these plans will turn out into commercial success for BRU.
To be continued.

They talk about a major hub. Maybe they don't consider the others as being major hubs....

The article appeared in Trends today.

EasyJet plans to open a major hub at EURO Airport (Basle - Freiburg - Muhlhouse). It will be the first EasyJet hub on the EU mainland. This is expected to be bad news for Swiss which is already facing financial problems. No information on the fleet size or type though.

In any case, the aircraft concerned was one of the first of its type to enter service. And as with all first aircraft that have entered service, there have been mishaps.

Was this accident caused by a glitch in the system or was it poor pilot knowledge of the A320 systems and controls ? I really ...

Knight255: It does not overrule your inputs. It prevents you from doing things that are unsafe. And believe me, you won't come anywhere near these limits in normal day to day operations.
Modern figher planes like the F-16 have fly by wire. I don't hear any Viper driver complain... :?
And yes, I love ...

Avro: go arounds are rather uncommon. And as far as I know they don't happen more often in BRU than elsewhere. I know people that are flying for 3-4 years now without a single go around, imagine... 8O

People shouldn't fear go-arounds. It is a perfectly normal and safe maneuver.

to Robin: The FQ320 go around on 6/09 runway 02 was me (didn't you see me waiving?). Thanks but no thanks to the F100 blocking the runway: expedite means hurry up.

For the record: it was nowhere near a crash..

Those weren't Extra's but Pitts Special biplanes:

Pitts S-2B OO-PVI
Pitts S-2B N141JH

All the best to both pilots in recovering from the ordeal. Hope to see them again soon. The aerobatic community in Belgium will not be the same without them.
