Re: Hewa Bora 767 supposed to leave BRU after 14 months storage

This is Congo headline news ! AirDC project is reportedly dead. But no one has the g*** to concede it at SN Holding. It already sucked 3 millions Euros without having a single aircraft taking off. Put this in parallel with all the savings SN is asking to its employees ! And this project was only mad...

You can look at SN's problems 360 times you will always end-up with one clear conclusion: This company has a total lack of long-term management and vision. . And the results are well known by everyone here. Hiring Parc aviation pilots and wet leasing BAe146 is ONE OF THE aspects of this going nowher...

rut-her: No, ABJ is now cancelled according to BIAC.
Summer A330 operations are now turning into a fiasco for B-A. Can't imagine what their new schedules will be with those 4 disaster birds. It's sad.

SFN won't come back in service before friday at the earliest. Heavy works to replace the landing gear + validation flight. All this in the heat and moisture of DLA. All thoughts to Sabena Technics guys. Good day.

I think it's SFN. At least according to ACARS datas.
I've heard about heavy gear problems.

Stranded pax in DLA not FIH. ALX flight BRU-Kin delayed by 24h.
Without that SFW as back up (when it worked) the summer might have been an image disaster for bru-air.

Hi APU-On This being your first post I don't know if you want to be informative or just spit on Bru Air. In both cases, you can add that tomorrow the SN3733 BRU-AGP is delayed from 06:00 to 13:00 with return at 20:10 iso 12:40. Guess it means that those working on bringing the bird back from FAO be...

Again troubles for 2 bru-air A330

Be notified that:
One A330 stuck in ABJ since last night.
One A330 (the charter one) stuck in Faro.

One full rotation Monrovia-Dakar cancelled.
Hundreds of passengers stranded.

it's not going to improve with such records. That's what happens when you take airplanes others don't want to fly with.
