SN has announced its brand new long haul cabin!
Looks really nice IMHO

Mayor of Ostend Bart Tommelein and Flemmish Minster of public works Ben Weyts started the construction of a new disassembly hall at Ostend Airport. Aerocircular, the new company, expects to scrap about 25 aircraft per year. As far as I know, this is the first dedicated scrapping facility in Belgium....

Interesting news today:

According to De Tijd, the flemish government wants to buy the shares of Macquarie. Any thoughts?

Found this on Skyliner:

Airbus A330 -342 895 OO-SFC Brussels Airlines ferried 28apr18 FRA-FCO, for paint into Eurowings cs

Will Eurowings have a second a330-300 in their fleet? I thought they were supposed to have only OO-SFB?
Someone with more information?

Hi,

According to planespotters.net, the first 737MAX for Tui will have OO-MAX as registration.
Has somebody more info about the frame? Is it already in the FAL? What will be the configuration? Whew will it come to Belgium?

Greetings,

Also, today is the last day of ops for the KLM Fokker 70, with KL1732 as the last flight from BRU.

Does anybody knows what happened to G-ECOK? Looks like he hasn't been flying around for some time. It flew to EXT on 01/08. Is it for paint in normal cs? Also, G-RJXI hasn't been flying around for some time as well. Also for paint? And it also seems that a lot of ERJ-flights just don't fly.

Not really aviation related but Brussels Airport tweeted this this morning:

Belgian sculptor #OlivierStrebelle, who created "Flight in mind" for #brusselsairport, passed away this weekend. Our heartfelt condolences. https://t.co/JVua7XglFT

It seems that EK will add a second daily flight DXB-BRU next winter. :D https://www.aviation24.be/airlines/emirates-airlines/twice-daily-brussels-next-winter-season/ It has now been confirmed by Emirates. https://www.aviation24.be/airlines/emirates-airlines/emirates-introduce-second-daily-flight-br...

Don't you mean May 2017? They are already doing some production testing with the first CS300.

interesting article about AZ and especcialy about the reaction of EY: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles ... uring-plan

For the next Winter timetable, Tui announced the first new long haul destination ex-BRU. They will fly for the first time to the exotic island Sint-Maarten in combination with Punta Cana. The exact flight schedule is not known at this moment but a very nice new destination for Brussels Airport. Mai...

OO-DWK has been ferried to NWI today. Only 5 avro's left...

Hi, i've seen that SWISS is retrofitting its a321's with sharklets. Will SN do the same with their a320's?

Hi,
I was looking around on the website of Tuifly and I saw something interesting. Their site states that they have 16 B737-800's in their fleet and the last two of their list are OO-TUP "DESTINY" & OO-TUX "INTUITION". Does anybody has more information about these two frames?
