A lot of completely non military or aviation related activities are being held at EBSU. e.g motorbike/car races, scouts camps, nature promoting organisations etc... Very strange indeed. The place must be very quiet causing an important local game population. When,in 2007, the belgian soaring nationa...

Another pilot, a Belgian one, managed to safely land his Boeing 737-800 after a bird strike that damaged both engines: captain Frédéric Colson flying with Ryanair and based in Hahn saved the life of 172 passengers on 10 November 2008 after the plane hit a cloud of birds shortly after take-off from ...

My feeling was confirmed the captain being a glider-instructor. It confirms the importance gliding experience is able to contribute to overall airmanship. Gliding is considered being one of the purest ways to feel and master an airplane's behavior. No surprise lots of well known glider champions are...

Reaction from this article: https://www.aviation24.be/forums/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=38254 Can somebody tell me which airline flies from KJD to GSQ ? And from BVZ to MGS ? Ok , these destination codes are fake !! You have to be a real 'professional' if you want to understand these sort of language. ...

Gliders flying in the Ardens are limited to a maximum altitude of 4500 ft QNH, except during the WE. It's hard to beleive but the only place where you meet military traffic is ... yes exactly in that tiny layer !! They prefer flying there because (as I've been told by a F16 pilot) they are out of co...

By the way, I still wonder if British Midland is also loosing money on their 50 extra wetleases

Your comparison means British Midland also grounds 50 of their own airplanes !!! Because if not, your statement doesn't make any sense.

routes between Amakusa and Fukuoka, Kumamoto and Matsuyama

According to TallDutch it's clear everybody knows where these places are situated... I must be completely stupid because I don't !!

... and the exodus is still going on ! Salary below international standards combined with high taxes, poor company development and professional outlook tends pilots to leave. Management unable to fill the gap in time causes the colleages to work at max speed, resulting in more departures. In general...

Monday's flight to FCO will be quite a change for Cpt.Paul Van Dingenen, at this moment a well considered competitor in the Belgian Gliding Nationals where he achieved the 4th place in the yesterday contest.

According to my info, the monday's flight is heading for Rome ??

Je ne peux parler que de St.Hubert, aérodrome que je connais assez bien. Figurez vous qu'il y a 11 salariés au payroll du MET + un responsable (Commandant d'aérodrome) qui trouve qu'il y en a trop peu ! Il faut compter qu’en été, période de pointe, il y en a toujours quelques-uns en vacance. En hive...

Last year, this prestigious international balloon contest was won by a belgian crew conducted by Bob Berben (Former Captain A330 Sabena, Birdy and SNBA). So, these days, the next edition is taking place in the belgian balloon 'Mekka' of Waasmunster near Sint Niklaas. 17 baloons took off this evening...

yep, there is the first bird lover already.

If you are concerned with the damage birds cause to airplanes, it's obvious you have to be catalogised as a 'bird lover', as if this would be a negative qualificaion...
