Re: The one and only topic on which runway in use @EBBR

I have seen that RWY 19 is used much lately. Is this due to the temporarily closure of RWY25R/07L? Because right know the winds also favor this runway, but say Sunday there will be not much wind at all. Will RWY25L/07R or 01 be used then? What do you guys think? Without being an expert in RWY usage...

I guess it won't be departing soon: it was pushed back, then again forward to the parking position, pushed back again, taxied to the rwy, we saw him lining up and... it taxied back. I suppose AOG with a technical glitch.

Re: BRU 07/08/2020

All of you MD11F aficionados: it seems our "regular" WGA aircraft N799JN (the fully painted one) is back from maintenance in SHV, and after some MIA-BOG round trips, it is headed for BRU again (time is STA):

Another FR24 glitch, that N581JN is still shown AOG in MIA, as of 1220 today? Or was the flight cancelled?

Must be a glitch, it’s well over the Atlantic with an ATD of 1049.

Yep, found it. Must have been one of FR24's countless hickups... ;)

Re: BRU 29/07/2020

Well, the original arrival time was 2130 tonight, so presumable just after sunset. So if it’s so heavily delayed, it might now arrive around sunrise tomorrow? No flight plan has been filed yet. Thanks! I think the flight was initially planned for today in the morning, but according to FR24, the fli...

It is the other way around (normally it arrives at sunrise, now at sunset) - or do you mean it will remain in BRU overnight to make an early departure tomorrow morning?

Since the WGA flight had to turn back to MIA after the initial flight phase, it is heavily delayed and will only arrive around sunset. Has anyone an idea of its ETD?

Thanks! It's UR-11316, took of from OZH and is indeed heading for BRU. ETA around 1720 seems to be pretty much accurate.

My last time to see an An-12 in BRU was on 28 October 2017. UR-CGW of Ukraine Air Alliance departed just minutes after the last commercial flight of an SN Avro out of BRU departed on the very same day.
