In een B737 quick reference chart vond ik dit stukje over het aborten van een take-off: ... REJECTED TAKEOFF : see Flt Man Sec 2 • below 100k (fires, smoke, failures, configuration, windshear, etc.), taxi off runway, run checklists • after 100k only for "Pwr Loss" OR "unsafe for fligh...

... Saw the best landing I have ever seen from who else but an Emirates A330, the pilot managed to just graze the rear tyres along the runway for around 150M before putting her down on the runway, ... Emirates (Maybe I'm missing the irony in here, I apologize if so...) The passengers will surely ha...

strange that on the VRT radio news they keep on reporting that the Ryanair 737-200 had an 'aborted take-off' due to 'a landing gear problem' (smoke from the tire(s) ), the plane 'didn't become airborne' and 'came to a full stop before the end of the runway' ... However, the trustworthy newspaper &qu...

Kadhafi's Afriqiyah A300 TS-IAY departed for Tripoli this afternoon around 15:00 local from 25R as Afrqiah flight 001, a couple of minutes behind Afriquah flight 002 in an unknown aircraft (presumably the A320 mentioned above). Both were assigned a ROUSY 1C departure by Brussels Clearance Delivery, ...

Again a request from me...
Wich runway is used today? (28/04)
Because I just saw the winds are South or South-east, but with Bertje's plan you never know... But I guess rwy 20?

greettzzz

winds are calm, so for the time being just the default arr on 25L, dep on 25R

ok thanks of course we are unable to read off the exact gusts, thats why i was confused ... Normally, significant (see below) gusts are noted on the METAR report also, for example, for 18 knots gusts, the latest metar in the list above above would read EBBR 261120Z 07006 G18 KT 020V110 CAVOK 18/05 ...

Does any of you have experience with a teleconverter for normal digicams (so not for FLR)? I once heard/read somthing that it would decrease the quality of the pics and the amount of light that enters true the lense or something like that. However the same should apply to teleconvertors for an SLR,...

From the pics I saw on airliners.net, it looks like the island of Sint-Maarten is a fun place to go on vacation 8) (for a spotter that is)

A little question; (but off-topic) Today (21/04) the winds are from the south, so... can someone say wich runway will be in use? The previous times rwy 20 was used when winds were Southely... greettzzz Here's the latest EBBR arrival information (10u26 local time) picked up by my scanner on 132.475 ...

Hi all, Scanning the EBBR Approach and Tower frequencies last weekend (saturday evening I believe it was), I heard one of the landing pilots reporting a bird strike on 25L. ATC offered the nr 2 pilot approaching 25L to go for a go-around, but the pilot pilots and just continued the 25L approach. Aft...

Note that the reason why a 'fart from the wrong direction' overrides Bert's plan's default runway assigment is,as far as I know, Biac & the pilots associations, not Bert. I think that, knowing that probably 75% of the winds at EBBR are always from the 220-280 degrees range, Biac 'hoped' that by ...

good work, Incredible tool for would-like-to-be enthusiasts like me !

I've started making a text-only document of an aircraft identifier, but never got further than 10 types or so...
I missed both the knowledge and the time to finish it.
I can't wait to see a print-out version of this!

I've often seen helicopters flying near or below the flight path in certain cities such as London (LHR approach). Do helicopters use/switch to the same ATC frequencies as planes when flying near or below a flight path? This is with regards to communication between the helicopter and a plane for saf...

see http://www.biac.be/cargo_tt/ ... but you do need to do a lot of mouse-clicking to find out what cargo lands on a specific afternoon... Maybe someone on this forum copied put all the actual cargo timetable info in a time-based roster instead of the city-based roster the only roster available on h...

A very interesting and huge source of information on digital photography can be found on http://www.belgiumdigital.com/, especially the forums are very interesting (just like luchtzak's forums 8) )

Grimbergen, so I hope that the rwys 25's will be in use for take-off tomorrow 8)

Does anyone have an idea why I had the luck to enjoy all those approaches to rwy 20 the last couple of days? My guess would be because of the dispersion plan of our Bert. 8) Greets, Pieter Rwy 20 approaches were in the original dispersal plan (more precisely on friday nights & sunday the whole ...
