I don't know if this is connected to the subject but instead of opening a new topic it's maybe better to make a quick post here. The Ethiopian 73G arrived vom ADD at 4:45 this morning ET8704, is it a regular flight, and could someone help out with the reg?Thanks
You seem to have had some very sleepy eyes my friend. The ET reg was put in the database on the 16th.
Even André apparently didn't see it , as many others when looking at some mailing list. Is the database getting too crowded with special visitors ?

@ JBL. The Ethiopian is unfortunately not a regular thing, especially the 737NG. PS May I welcome you to Luchtzak!

@ Skystef. The spotters DB doesn't seem to be working for this month at the moment.

Rgs,

Emirates

@Emirates: Thank you for the nice welcome

Infact I tried the spotter DB before and got (still getting) a page not found error.

@Funflyer: many thanks for your quick reaction Karl!

Ok it's solved, database was erroneous desactivated since early this morning. As I was logged in as admin, even deactivated pages look normal to me, so sorry for that.

Concordino,

I thought so after checking Florennes forum.

The camouflaged one is thus the Polish one.

The African Summit brought what was expected: lots of good old smokers so I was briefly present to have a taste.

A smokey t/o, a day earlier than expected, typical for VIP planes: they come a go when they want.

Notifiable first visit.

Taxiing Romanian smoker.

A good old F28, last visit of such plane must be ages ago.

Also some newer stuff, nevertheless worthfull

Line up of young & old: in the back the albino B727-100 which I caught earlier.

I hate these unplanned earlier outbounds.....
So is there anything left in BRU we could get tomorrow?
What about the two 727, BAC 1-11 and the F28, are they staying until tomorrow?

The BAC 1-11 (nice surprise btw) left this afternoon shortly after the Lowa 707. Also QR A332 A7-HJJ and QR A345 A7-HHH left in the afternoon.

At 16:00 movement was going on around the F28 and Burkina 727.

And a nice pure civil one also today : YU-ANF B733 JAT in Aero c/s.

It was so cool to see 2 707's, 2 727's and a F28 together at Abelag, also the ET 73G was very nice !

Regards, Robin Bamps.

Robin, did you drink too much? I thought only N88ZL was there?

So I assume that all the big ones have now left? [BTW, I just saw a report on DSML that the Burkina 727 is now at SPL.]

What about the "normal" bizjets, there were some Botswana, Uganda, etc... bizzers reported over the last few days. Were they also preparing to depart this afternoon?

Hi Michael,

OK1 from Botswana was waiting for it passengers when I left at 19h30. No activity around 5X-UEF.

Greetings,

No

But a NATO 707 was pushed out Hangar 8 and parked next to N88ZL. N88ZL than left BRU and some 20 min after the NATO 707 was pushed inside Hangar 8 again.

Regards, Robin Bamps.

Exactly, I spotted this amazing line-up as well from the office! And I didn't drink either...

Any idra of the ETD?

Post by **Bruspotter** » 19 Nov 2006, 16:25

Hello

Today @ BRU (Sunday 19.11.2006) , Saudi Arabian Air Force Gulfstream from Riyadh via Jeddah. ETA 16:45 (landed 17:00LT) , ETD 08:00 (Monday 20.11.2006)

Does it has anything to do with the visit of alle the African governmental planes? I know Saudi Arabia is not an African country but anyway.

Best regards: Yannick

No not at all and if yes then they were 2 days too late, it ended 17.11

No serious, its just a VIP flight.
