Just spotted inbound COA above Lier: N745AM aeromexico 772.

WC soccer Germany charter?

Where was this picture taken?

Could be an AWACS or Sentry during military exercise, doing large patterns high in the sky.

My guess is also for a Britannia/Thomasonfly plane. Defenitely not a 757, but a 767 series! My guess is the short one, although not sure.

Skystef,

Is the MH cruising E or W bound on your picture? I guess it is E bound?

Anyway, normal routing is more North, but can vary due to weather (winds).

Pawel,

Malaysia mostly passes over the Netherlands, routing RENDI REFSO (westbound), thus passing overhead Rotterdam. A lot of Singapore airline planes have the same routing. It is also used by QF, BA, EK, QR .

I've never seen any MH plane contrailing over Belgium.

Pawel,

weather is pretty overcast here, so impossible to see it passing overhead...

Skystef,

did you manage to make a picture of the AI 777 on Sunday eve? It was contrailing to BHX on the same route a few minutes behind the Dynastie 747 to MAN...

It was a wonderful sight in the setting sunlight...

Jense,

RU sure about YUL? I cannot see it on their route network...

Sabena_690,

the UAL 747 was idd around 2 o'clock. It ws defenitely following the same routing as all the other LH heavies to the USA.

Pipodeclown.

Guys,

747 is also a lufthansa one IMO.
The 330 is one departing from Dusseldorf.

Ivan, where did you spot them? yes, indeed an nice day for contrailspotting. I saw almost the same planes: QFA was VH-OJP TK was TC-JNB (to LHR) IR was AB4 EP-IBD to LHR my list for today: 319 Privat *2 330 LTU *2 330 LH *2 763 DL *4 772 AA 330 OS?? 340 LH*3 321 ME201 744BA*2 773 EK15? 773ER EK1 744...

Brubiac,

As Frederic already mentioned, the 340 most likely belongs to Gulf Air. A4O-LB visited EGLL today and passed overhead Belgium around noon as GF002.

The 747 of ELAL was most likely operating flight LY315 LLBG-EGLL. ID: 4X-ELA

Guys, girls, SIN-EWR SQ 22 is most likely flown over the pacific. EWR-SIN SQ21 is most likely flown over the atlantic. I've never seen reports SQ22 flying overhead Europe. SQ21 is normally flying higher North than Belgium. Flying Eastward means full advantage of the jetstream. This is far more impor...

Sabena_690,

EK201 DXB-JFK was most likely flying inbound COA. KOK is used for eastbound traffic.

Pipodeclown

Elnombre,

I saw SQ021 passing overhead EHAM inbound ARNEM last Monday or Tuesday.

What is its normal routing overhead Danmark?

Pipodeclown

People,

SQ021 is EWR-SIN

Pipodeclown

Brubiac,

IMO last one is A340-500 9V-SG_ operating as SQ021 JFK-SIN.

When was it taken?
