Thanks for the info!
At current weather conditions, 07R is the logical choice. The crowd on the spotters platform would have loved a 01 departure though... :)

The second one just landed, reg. ZA704 - they came from RAF Benson (EGUB).
Parked where and any STD?
As far as I could see they are at EBMB. No idea about the STD.

I see. At least this saves me from the hassle of getting to the airport, as I'd never ever make it in time for the landing. Bad daytime for spotting it anyway... :lol:

On the way back now
Possibly an earlier landing than the initial ETA (1815LT)?

VS A321F 19:40-21:10 Operated by Titan Airways? Indeed, G-NIKO. The first flight took place earlier on 20.05., positioning flight from STN. Weather wasn't ideal, so I guess I was the only one having spotted it. Also, that was the first landing of an A321P2F in Brussels. https://i.postimg.cc/1gpwtDr...

Re: BRU 17-18/02/2022 - 55 African Union members meet with EU members

As far as my informations go, the summit is said to be preceded by the African-European Trade meeting, which will be held in a "hybrid" format, due to the pandemic. Whether the summit might also be a "hybrid" one - thus less African visitors flying in - remains to be seen. Note t...
