Wanted!!! Air Carraibes spotters!!!

Post by Bruspotter »

Hi there all of you!

I hoped to see the A330-200 Air Carraibes
when he arrived at Brussels,and organize
a sort of short meet for this special occasion(aldo it
was a reel spottersmeet last Sunday).

But here is the case:

The plane arrives really early , so what is required
is that you leave home early.

Statement: The plane arrives at 06:10 BUT!!!!! Is delayed to
07:55 , wich means that it will arrive aproximatly at 07:30/35 instead
of at 06:00 hours.
But i hope it will stay like that until tomorrow(no early's wanted).
Cause if i would say i leave home at 06:00 ,and he is earlier,
than i'll have a really bad day!!!

So everyone who wish to come tomorrow. I'll be at the
head of RWY25L(spotting A),or in case the wind changes
at RWY02. You must know that if you do the same thing
as me,you will take a risk!!!

For all the ones who are prepared to try this,hope to see you guys
tomorrow,and GOOD LUCK!!!

CONFIRMATION OF ARRIVAL AND DEPARTURE TIME,and or i will
be there yes or no, will be arround 21:00 at last.

Regards: Yannick/Bruspotter :wink:

Post by Bruspotter »

Hello guys, nice you guys might be there.

André, do you mean that there will come another 332 from
Air Carraibes at BRU??? And is the time that you named
arrival or departure time?

By the way , does anybody knows,wich runway they would use this month??? (For Landing 25L/or 02?)

I don't know yet or i can, i must receive confirmation from
my dad or he want,yes or no bring me to there, because it will be more
than a half hour driving(motorcycle) and i would like to be there at
07:00-07:15 hours(will be very close to the landing-time)

So i hope i can.

Regards: Yannick :)

Will the one hour delay hold stand?

Post by Bruspotter »

HI me again.

Like Chris said yet. I also wouldn't mind that the plane
is more delayed,but there is a even greater risk. It
could be that the plane catches up his delay,so he still
can land about 06:30-06:50 i hope not!
(Has Happend serveral time in the past,when i was spotting).

But still i stay optimistic.

Yet the only probleme i have is taking the risk to be there
at 07:00, but my first priority now is getting my dad so far
that he want to wake up at 06:15 or something like that
AND IT IS WEEKEND!!!!!

well,confirmation will be later this evening,hope i can.

Maybe until tomorrow! :)

Hello there, you can count me in for tomorrow. I hope the plane gets some more delay. 8th o clock is still early for the sun, if there is some sun, just saw the weather forecast. See you there.

Confirmation!!!

Post by Bruspotter »

Hello guy's!

Here's the confirmation!!!

I will be there about aproximatly 07:00/07:15(at last 07:30).
At the runway beginning of RWY 25L(if the wind isn't changed than it will be RW02.)

It's now 21:15 and BRU-BIAC still indicates a delay of 1.55 hours
so that makes 07:55 instead of 06:10. The plane will probely
leave Puerto Plata with an hour delay so...

I hope to see some of you guy's tommorow.

Ciao!!!

Regards: Yannick :D :D :D
