Re: TLV - Ben Gurion Airport Israel

Any tips on spotting in Israel? I"m spending quite a lot of time in Israel lately and I'm considering to take my DSLR camera with me.

Re: BRU 21/07/2013 National Day

Thanks for the list. All of the above will take-off and land at Brussels then?

I assume there will also be quite some foreign visitors which will arrive somewhere on Saturday or Sunday early morning?

At the moment, runway 07R is in use for departures (winds from the east-south-east 3Bft). Any chance this will be also the case tomorrow (winds from the south-east 2-3 Bft) ?

Also something special planned for tomorrow ?

Damn, that's sad news.

I've seen this plane also dozens of times above my home doing some acrobatics. Will miss these nice shows for sure.
