REQ; BRU runway use 10.10.04

Post by **Bruspotter** » 09 Oct 2004, 11:21

Hello dear fellow colleagues spotters!

I will be dropped at Brussels airport tomorrow after-noon.

Don't know yet what time. But my major question is wich
runways will be used. When i went spotting last summer,and
even my last time somewhere half september,all planes
landed RWY25L, including Cargo's.

Since i probably will be standing at RWY25L,i'm asking myself
wether the Cargo's would land there too,as past summer.
Does anybody have recent info about the runway use of the
25R?

By the way , if anybody feels something for spotting at SU to,
would be fun.

Thanks and best regards: Yannick

If winds blow from the west, Cargo aircraft will normally land on 25R again as far as I know, as well as some other pax traffic.

Hi spotters!

Damn, hoped that they used the 25R for take-off's and
RW25L for landings,some small ones may land at 25R,but....
not the big ones.

Anyway,we'll see. I hope the wind comes from the North/Northwest,
than they land at RW02.

But i think that's a remote chance.

Anyway; thanks

Hi Yannick,

They announce Eastern winds for tomorrow currently,
so maybe you're lucky and they use the 02

Good luck

Hi

Thanks guy's that really makes me feel great!

Well, if that's true,i'm getting what i want.Than the Cargo's must
land at RW02 too.

Really hope so,and who knows what else. The only bad thing
is that i will only be about approx. 13:00 or later,and there
want be that much big planes on the approach.

Cathay Pacific,Singapore Cargo(probebly can't stay long enough
to see them all(3 or 4),so it will be one of that. And maybe
SV M1F. But for the rest it will be real quiet.
But it's better than nothing.

Yup, I can confirm the easterly wind RWY conditions, since I can spot departing traffic over Mechelen.

If the same wind conditions apply tomorrow, you should be able to see cargo traffic landing on 02 and departing 07R (and 02?).

A lot of aircraft have been taking off from 7L this afternoo, , not only the cargo aircraft, but also a lot of Pax flights.
02 is in use for landing
