Re: Air Belgium: a rebirth?
Apparently OO-ABB was used on a Boeing 737-200 back in 2005

The guys from FR24 probably also thaught "seeing is believing" - thus "Let's wait till she flies before we adjust the photo".
Re: Air Belgium: a rebirth?
I don't think that there is already a brand new picture available in the jetphotos.net database, hence the old picture.

Re: Air Belgium: a rebirth?
It has passed over my place one minute before landing and I can confirm that it is a 4-engines 737
. And fairly quiet!

I'm about 800m offset to RWY07R but she was still at about 1500ft so way too far at night.
Maybe if Nikon had a powerful enough flash but then I'd probably fry all the neighbourhood...

Re: Air Belgium: a rebirth?
So why landing in Brussel, and not CRL? Did I miss anything?

Re: Air Belgium: a rebirth?
How many maintenance facilities CRL has? On the aerial view of CRL I can't seem to find any other than SABCA.
Good reason to fly it to BRU first as Sabena Aerospace will be working on them.
Why I think they will do the final checks and maybe even the painting? Stand 514 in Brussels is quite a give away, The only maintenance companies in BRU capable of maintaining this type are LH Technics and Sabena Aerospace. LH Tech has its own apron situated next to/partial behind the new DHL hub.

The plane will be towed to the lufthansa hangar in the following hours. The second Air Belgium plane is planned to arrive around noon.
