I thought an Avro was capable to perform a cat III landing? But just 1 cat and it has to return allready!

Amazing story !!!!! Thank god nothing serious happened and the plane landed back safely.

I really hope that the cat's owner will get a big fee to pay.

Anyone seen the advertisement of the incident?
It's printed in "Het laatste nieuws".

It was in all major Belgian newspapers. I read it in La Libre belgique.

Thanks for the scanning Kristof.

I really like the spirit of this advertisment. :P

Very good move of them, making from a "negative" news a very good advertisment that shows that they can handle such things. If they wouldn't have reacted, the opinion of the general public could potentially turn out to be worse for SNBA. But this advertisment puts it all in proportion, and shows that they don't take themselves too serious, something that every company or person should be able to do! (without of course going to the other extreme).

Their marketing department knows how to improvise on actuality!

Greets,
