Re: Anomalies in BRU-ANR-CRL-KJK-LGG-OST in 2024

While Flightradar24 is only guessing the diversion airport and in cases where ground receiver coverage is poor, that leads occasionally to incorrect guesses being made by FR24. But in this case something else was going on. Once SN3289 was halfway between Cyprus and Israel, both FR24 and ADS-B Exchan...

Re: First Belgian RNP procedure operational

First Belgian RNP procedure operational at EBAW. Rwy11 Rwy29 planned 2017 With 'a bit' of delay, the RNP RWY 29 is available as of yesterday. In the original planning (2015) this was going to be the last one in Belgium, don't know if that is still the case, as 07L at EBBR still has no RNP and there...

Re: Strikes affecting Belgian airports in 2023

as an intro: I was in the past (in a different sector) on a union-candidate list for social elections, so I'm not a deep-rooted union hater...

Re: TUI Aviation in 2023

It’s new in the TUI fleet, but it’s not a new aircraft yes and no, it's not really a brand new aircraft, but it has only been in use by Belavia for well less than a year and then in storage for a year and a half. Taking an aircraft out of storage, can always bring some extra surprises. And all engi...
