30 minutes is indeed quite short.
I also hope the current system has enough bandwith to handle the extra users. I remember in Doha the WiFi was useless because of that.

I thought the famous (and expensive!) diabolo was meant to avoid that constraint.

It does, for trains going to Mechelen/Antwerp.

why is the Bruges-Brussels-Leuven- Tongeren train not making a stop at the airport? Because it would need to change direction ("kop maken") at the airport, driving in from the South and leaving to the South again. This is a complex operation, taking at least 20 minutes if my old memory se...

There is a funeral for an (important) ex-military.

ICE555 has an engine problem and returning to BRU.

Lufthansa names their A380's to cities around the world. Their other planes are named after famous places. AFAIK Brussels Airlines does not name its aircraft.

Gotta love how people like to overreact

Wow it just turns 360 degrees

NTSB's Twitter account is very interesting, they are tweeting their press conference:

FR24 shows GS, quite low indeed. I wonder how much the fact that ILS and VASI/PAPI were U/S played.

TB4628 PMI - OST seems to be diverting (bad weather at OST). http://fr24.com/JAF6VM

Can anybody tell me if the gear remaining down above the clouds is a standard procedure for a first flight? Will they test it later in this flight or in another? It is indeed standard procedure. They first test the aircraft like this before moving to a full 'clean' config (gear up - flaps up). A350...
