They have already started, CEO Liege Airport Luc Partoune told me at the signature ceremony. But of course, not yet the full programme.

And operated by ASL Belgium so far !

This week, on request of SOWAER, night trials for a new SID from runway 22L in LGG.

Unlike other SID's from 22L, this one will offer a left turn after departure, probably improving drastically airport capacity !

Alibaba Group, and Liege Airport today signed a contract to lease a total area of 220,000 square meters to build a world-class smart logistics hub at Liege Airport. The initial investment will be 75 million euros, with the first phase of the facility planned to commence operations in early 2021. htt...

Alibaba in Liège : deal done !
Following today's general assembly, Luc Partoune, CEO of Liege Airport, has been mandated to sign the contract officializing Alibaba's settlement at Liege Airport !

FedEx seems not to be happy. FedEx is now a major actor at Liège. And FedEx has his major european hub in Paris ! They are in a good position to lobby at ADP !

ADP (25 % shareholder of Liege Airport) not that happy about the setting up of Alibaba at Liege Airport !

Apparently they first tried to land without dumping, but they changed their mind

The aim of the first approach was to perform a visual check of the engines by people on the ground. This was not a landing attempt !

22L available again !

TAY811, OE-IFD, possible birdstrike after departure, diverted back to EBLG after a short excursion overhead West-Flanders. Correct, bird strike (engine number 3 ingested numerous seagulls) during take-off. Performed fuel dumping and then vibrations in engine number 4 appeared. Declared MAYDAY and r...
