That's why i said i wasn't going to tell anything yet.
Nothing serious ofcourse, just some minor technical problems like all aircraft that come out of the hangar....

Anyway, maintenance staff will try to keep her in a good shape

About the reg:

can't help it but I have the impression the reg rather looks like
00-CBA iso OO-CBA. Mistake ?

negatif,

the reg doenst' ahs anything to do with the pilots, pilots can even be African.
Al depends on where the airline wants its aircraft registered (depends on several costs etc) and for CargoB the plane is registered in BE which gives OO-XXX.

HQ in Belgium, Belgian AOC, but pilots with a Luxembourg contract= looking for trouble with the belgian taxman!
Our friend LX (whats in a name!) will certainly be quoting the relevant laws soon...

Most likely... I am even surprised it hasn't been done yet!

But I'd trust CBB more than him, to be honest.
I guess they know what they are doing... and they are certainly not the only ones!

I prefer forums that talk about aviation, not about each other. Sorry guys...

Guys,

It has nothing to do with where the pilots are from...

The only thing is that with a JAR licence, you can fly on all planes registered through the JAR accepted countries.
(of course, you will only have a type rating for some specific types of planes).
Meaning you cannot fly on a US registered plane because then, you would need a FAR licence (provided by the US' FAA ...)

The way it used to be was that a Belgian pilot could only fly OO- registered planes.
However, as a Belgian, you could also acquire, for instance, a US or French licence. With that US or French licence, a Belgian native pilot could still fly N or F-XXX registered planes.
In those days, it was the licence that counted and had to be the same as the country in which the plane was registered.
This sort of thing only still exists in some categories of light aviation.
I for instance, as a Belgian, have both a Belgian and French licence, outside the JAR rules...
A 747 doesn't fit in "light or leisure aviation"

Since the JAR system, the above is history in commercial aviation.
(the US uses the FAA's FAR system)

So YES, of course a pilot from Luxemburg can fly an OO- registered plane because he would have a JAR registered licence.
How do you think many German and Irish pilots could fly for Sabena in the old days. And who do you think sits in the cockpit of EAT's (DHL)
OO- registered 757 and A300's????

Captain Remi,

Sorry, but you are out of topic here... the question here is about the SALARY (or contract) in Luxembourg.

Kind regards
