Re: Brussels Airlines in 2019
Also OO-SNI (in maintenance for about 6 weeks) and OO-SNJ (in maintenance for over 3 months) are again flying.

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2019
SNE was supposed to be the next, as OOSNA was first and OOSNF last, SNE was the only aircraft not yet in Belgian colors. I bet on Art Nouveau !

Hummm could be a good idea...

Not Art Nouveau (confirmed to me by an SN manager, who would not disclose the final design, however).TLspotting wrote: ↑11 Apr 2019, 21:45 SNE was supposed to be the next, as OOSNA was first and OOSNF last, SNE was the only aircraft not yet in Belgian colors. I bet on Art Nouveau !

I don't think it's a good idea for an airline to upset a lot of their clients in the north. After all, Brel is the singer from "...Messieurs les Flamingants, Je vous emmerde...."
Re: Brussels Airlines in 2019
But he was also singing "Le plat pays" and "Marieke", celebrating Flanders...

He was Flemish,French speaking but Flemish !
I think there was a lot of auto derision in his songs.
Hasta la victoria siempre.
Re: Brussels Airlines in 2019
I am hoping it's a waffle plane. Would be amazing. Or a plane full of fries
Others I'd really like:
- A chocolate plane
- Gaston Lagaffe / Guust Flater
- Spirou et Fantasio / Robbedoes ( or just a plane with all the Dupuis characters )
A plane showing our beers would also be nice, but I think it's a bad idea PR wise ( with promoting alcohol on a plane )

Re: Brussels Airlines in 2019
Also: what happened to OO-SFU ?
Re: Brussels Airlines in 2019
Refurbishing and check
Re: Brussels Airlines in 2019
As Passenger points out, he has, in fact, on his last album sung "The flamingants" but he is the best-known Belgian singer "outside the border" and has marvelously sung Belgium and Flanders in particular, it seems to me. "The flat country" is more the northern party than the southern part ... it speaks only of Flanders and it is simply beautiful and it is a francophone who says it ... we'll see!
Re: Brussels Airlines in 2019
Rather a global shortage of the required PW engines, resulting in a prelonged AOG of SFU... They probably use the ground time to do some other stuff (but it's not getting the new interior for example), but that's not the primary reason it's been on the ground for so long now.
Re: Brussels Airlines in 2019
Is it still a result of the fuel contamination of last December at Kinshasa Airport ?
Re: Brussels Airlines in 2019
Not that I know. Engines also need heavy maintenance once in a while, or quicker if detailed inspections reveal things that make it risky or too unsafe to continue operations with that engine. There are for the moment too many PW engines in such heavy maintenance for too long causing a shortage of these engines on the market. It's not an SN or SFU -specific issue.
