That's the 340 of the Royal Family.
Any idea about their visit?

Best Regards,

Why is it on a thrusday and the departure on a sathurday in the evening?

Post by **Apuneger** » 22 Nov 2004, 16:21

Thanks for the news, Brubiac. I assume that it'll be parked at Abelag? So it should land on 25R if winds blow from the west.

Greetings,
Ivan

I hope it will park on Abelag, because royals mostly park on Melsbroek...

Maybe the one that will come to BRU will have the "Royal Titles".

Nice visitor indeed. I'll maybe have some time to see it leaving BRU on saturday.

Bruspotter,

Don't worry that's life. I'm also stuck here at university and can't go to the airport.

According to Gilles Denis' message on DSML, JY-ABH landed around 12:20 and is now parked at Abelag with two stairs in front.

it was a super day for spotting today at BRU

Post by **Apuneger** » 25 Nov 2004, 17:58

It sure was a good day. It was nice to see a couple of aviation enthusiasts & friends (again), including Christophe Van Lint, Fabrice Sanchez & Wim Callaert.

We sure had some fun making photos of the magnificent Jordanian A340 under perfect lighting conditions. Nice weather, an amazing aircraft & good friends, what more can you ask for?

Greets,
Ivan
