Negative. 5000 € is 5000 € and 273K is 273K. If you perhaps meant the way facts and figures are presented by certain media, then I totally share your scepticism. Finding the facts is one thing, knowing how to interpret them is quite another. Reading a balance sheet is not an easy matter, for just on...

[ sarcasm ] Yes, one must be born in a special raciality, to prefer facts and figures over opinions and daydreams. Of course.[ / sarcasm ]

One more reason for me to keep away from that faecesbook! All info is offered here!

Ha! bedankt!

For the best part of the last hour - roughly 19:30-20:30 UTC, and no end to it as I type this - a helicopter has been slowly circling the area near Haacht railway station. It is not visible on flightradar24, and sounds much like our Federal Police MD900 NOTARs. Would it really be the police? What ev...

Now it that isn't a real aviation related contribution!?

So what may have caused the transponder to suddenly stop transmitting?

I cannot know, and I dislike speculation, but to answer the question as asked, one possible reply might be that it was switched off.

I wouldn’t be surprised the

Sorry, but could we please avoid blank speculation?

Are the back boxes normally not given to an aviation authority (or eventually to the black box manufacturer) for read out, and not to a private company that is directly involved with the crash? Yes, exactly my understanding. Actually I seem to remember that the local aviation authority is always th...

... "but I found myself unable to convince my bosses/shareholders" ? That would indeed close HER case!

Jan will explain you the difference

First need to get rid of that horrible headache :vomit: and if my stomach is back in working order I can think of a bit of flying... Semantics can come later, perhaps, or even not at all.

2020 now! !

Seconding both! Keep up the good work! Happy landings!

And didn't NOTAMs have a maximum life cycle of 90 days, too?
My reading would rather be "grounding continued, no end in sight yet".

They know everything better.

They would run an airport better then the most experienced people.

Complaining is the favorite sport of Belgians

[[ off-topic ]] For this once, dear @Atlantis, I feel it is you that are needlessly negative. Certainly there are those who post all kinds of ideas about how to improve airports and/or airlines; it annoys me too because it sounds so much like the "armchair manager" phenomenon that I so loathe. It is...

There really is a bright future before you. Go for it!! (and keep us posted, please).

You are welcome to your opinion, yes, of course, for what it is worth. As I've stated before: opinions are plenty, and cheap - everybody has several on hand. Better have more to offer, though, than criticism from the side line - that is all too easy. Like all those "supporters" at Anderlecht FC, the...

it is pityful to see things moving soo slowly Another armchair airport manager? GO FOR IT! Convince them you can do better and then DO better! They'll be glad to make you welcome! Handsfull of money to be gained! Otherwise, you had better be content to observe the airport is - to say the very least...

Mind you, there is even no mention of a 5G network.
What is mentioned is a 5G-ready network - whatever that may mean.
