There was a Saudi MD-11F parked at Brucargo around 17:00.
The MIA-BRU flight was probably a ferry flight. It was N279AX
of Centurion Air Cargo which came instead of the World MD11.
Probably the WOA plane went technical somewhere, I don't know.

Thanks for the feedback, Robin.
I drove by on "de grote ring" at 18:00 and I also noticed the SV MD11 and also an aircraft with a yellow tail, assumingly a DHL 757/300. Unfortunately you can no longer see clearly what is parked at Brucargo when you're passing by on the ring, especially not when you're driving yourself. Thanks for clarifying that it was actually a Centurion aircraft.
This must have been a painfully expensive ferry flight (to be invoiced to World Airways) if a DC10 has to fly empty all the way from MIA to BRU to cover up for an MD11 that went tech. Just wondering now why Centurion flew straight to BRU, rather than flying through YYZ to pick up first the Europe bound cargo.
