There is nothing else than politics involved in this permit issue. So yes, it makes sense I guess.

The possible cancellation would be due to juridical reasons, not because of a negative advice.
Very misleading title.

Oh the misleading articles are not new

Hey mister I-make-fake-bomb-alerts-at-Warsaw-Airport,

it seems like you're constantly searching for trivial reasons to argue and attack the editors of this website. You should refrain from making such comments and focus on moving forward positively and constructively.

Do you refer to the time you were writing articles here?

Hey mister I-make-fake-bomb-alerts-at-Warsaw-Airport,

So first, I was 17 and I have evolved mentally since, I apologised and I know I was wrong, I totally recognised that I misinterpreted things. That's how the things were shown and told by the guards on site in July 2018. I know that in the future, I'll abstain to write such things. End of this story.

Do I have to talk on how an airline made me cry the day that I've supposedly shared a picture of their new "special livery"? They never apologised.

I worked at Aviation24.be and if you want my whole opinion at all, I'm proud to have worked at this website and I even told thanks for the opportunity to André on Saturday during the press event of Singapore Airlines. I mean we got great times and that's it.

I'm just not happy with what the website has become since I left. I'm not glad how CPK was covered (because sponsored) and how the editorial line continued to be nearly only full of press releases. Yes, I did the same too before leaving, I admit it. I've been working on my own blog (or even the other outlet I'm currently quitting) which I won't mention here and I take hours and hours and hours to try to produce quality content. This is the whole difference and there is an absence of critical mind, from my point of view. If you're thinking my current job is only "writing", you're completely false, I'm making everything on my own. It's probably my future. The careers of the editors at Av24 are done or stable. Mine is only beginning. So I'm moving forward with maybe more to come.

But I agree that I've a bit overreacted on this matter on the fact that it was misleading. It is just because I was based on Lux_avi's post and opinion.

Voilà.

It is misleading because it's too shortcutted.

A title is the first impression of an article. In this case, those who do not know the story would first believe there is a negative advice about the permit in general. It's not the case. The Walloon Region is behind Liege Airport and supports it, only Ecolo wants to restrict it more than its "partners" in the current government. The negative advice by the Council of State is pure juridiction. Nothing else.

In the current climate against aviation in the media, I think it is important to make the difference.

LGG received today the "new" environmental permit. It's a correction on the previous one with now the correct 55.000 flights per year mentioned.

The Brussels Court of Appeal has ordered the Walloon Region, along with Liège Airport and Fedex Express Belgium, to pay out to residents who say that airport noise has left their homes "uninhabitable"

The appellate court also ordered the Walloon Region to establish an effective monitoring and penalty system for noise violations. The regional government must provide proof that it has done this within the next 6 months, or it will be subject to "significant" penalty payments.

E-commerce boom !

"Currently, every single working day, 5,000 tons of e-commerce shipments are flown to Europe from Hong Kong’s airport Chek Lap Kok alone; most of them stemming from the three e-traders (Shein, Temu and AliExpress), reports Olaf Oczkos, editor of the trade journal, PalettenReport. If flights from Shanghai, Guangzhou or Zhengzhou are added, the total volume easily doubles. The shipments come directly from production facilities and are loaded onto freighters or into the lower deck compartments of passenger airplanes at Chinese airports, arriving 12 or 15 hours later in Liège, Madrid, Budapest or Frankfurt. The e-commerce segment reports a phenomenal growth rate in most countries, reaching between 6% and 10% p.a. Temu alone receives orders from 45 million European customers every month. Product demand is likely to be similarly high for Shein or AliExpress. In 2023, cross-border e-commerce sales in Europe amounted to 255 billion EUR. According to data available, to date, around 4 billion parcels are expected to be delivered to European shoppers by the end of 2024, 80% of which will come from China."
