BRU 31/08/2021

BRU should have been honoured with the visit of one of the three Ryanair's business jets today, since Michael O'Leary was having a press conference in Brussels in the morning and in London in the afternoon.

Was it Learjet 45 M-ABEU, or Learjet 45 M-ABGV, or Learjet 45 M-ABJA ?

By looking at the FR24 records of those three planes, my best guess is that M-ABEU carried him from Stansted to Charleroi yesterday 30 Aug, and the same M-ABEU flew him back from Brussels to Stansted today.

I am surprised to see that those three Learjets are almost constantly in the air!

They do technical missions a lot (flying spare parts, engineers & crew) to minimise disruption around the network. They are some of the hardest working Learjets in the world and I have been told they’re somewhat an experiment regarding cycles and hours.
