Perhaps we can organise a meeting where we will of course wear our Luchtzak T-shirts and clean up the spotting places at the same time? In the past there was already such a "plan", and suddenly there was a deep silence... To use a well known slogan : "a lot of blabla but no boemboem&...

its life Agreed, it is life... But life is too much about people who don't care about others (and about other's hobbys)!!! Even as we have a precious hobby, those farmers have theirs (and even their living) next to the airport. Maybe 'it is life', but it is also an opportunity to make it - life - b...

@Glider: When did you see the Estonian? And was it landing or taking off? I saw an Estonian departing from 25R at ~19:06 (see log). I'm missing all the registrations, because I was viewing out of the MS clinic building (visiting grandmother). Well, I can assure you it was the same plane (ES-ABH). T...

I was at the sandhills in Nossegem this afternoon. The plane (OO-TCL) did 3 or 4 touch and goes... Training flight is possible, because after its landing, the plane went to the SN Technic apron. Other special one today (as mentioned in the spotters database): Boeing 757-200 - ATA American Trans Air ...

At that moment, I was in Lyon for my training period. After work, that day, I went 5 minutes up to t...

If you are sure it was an Embraer (Regional Airlines) that operated that flight, the reg was F-GRGM. If the plane was a CRJ (operated by Brit Air, but AF-colours), the reg would have been F-GRJM)

@Maaspotter: You're right; another possible candidate... It makes it even more difficult for me :-p

@Skystef: it was after 5 PM that I saw the plane flying from west to east. So maybe it's a return flight of one of those that you mentioned...

Gracious ;-)
I went for a little walk tonight. 5 minutes from home and I was under the approach of the beast.

Pity Prince Philip comes back in a A300... It's the second time I miss a LH 744...
