Whow ! What a great view this was ! Just sitting in my living room, and suddenly I hear a noise louder then normal, I look outside, and see the SATA A310 in final, with two fighter jets next to it ! (I think F16 )

F16 A310 F16

The plane vacated A3 and went onto the military apron.

Anyone got pics ??

Greetz,

Hi,
Have a look at the news pages on www.baha.be
I've pictured the Andover PR.1 yesterday on its arrival at Melsbroek for a one week Open Skies deployment including missions over the Benelux. It is a very rare bird indeed and is said to have served before its Open Skies detachment along the electronic surveillance Nimrod R.1 with N° 51 Squadron RAF.

Regards,

Daniel

I didn't see the plane, but the whole day, landings were on RWY 02. It could be Emirates ment this RWY

A typing transposition I guess - 20/02 !

Have checked the database and still no reg for the SATA 310 (20.00) anyone read it offf?

Also required please are the SunExpress 738 parked next to the Excel 738, an all white 742 dep c 17.40, the Kalitta 742 and the Asiana 744. Also seen were 3 Gemini DC10/MD-11 parked side by side - normally only 2 at a time I think. Has one gone tech? (reg's please)

Nice to see the Andover although not a frame for me as I saw it on the production line at Woodford in the 60's!!

@ Meerkat:

Kalitta 742: N713CK

Asiana 744: HL7420

Not sure about the others but I'll try and find those as well unless someone else comes up with the correct answers of course

Hello

Great pictures everyone!!!

Too bad nobody could caught the SATA with fighter escort. Must have been a nice sight!

Best regards: Yannick

i have it

but it's a pic of very poor quality due to the distance and wideness of the seen + it was with counterlight

so i didn't bother to load it up

anyway it was a nice sight indeed
