Hi
It will be quite nice to have the regs of the photo you took as you caught some nice visitors!
I have identified almost all but I need confirmation for some.

Turkish 310 => TC-JCY
RAM 737 => CN-ROB
DAS DC-10 => 5X-JCR ??
Egypt 330 => SU-GCI or SU-GCJ ??? (nice catch)
World MD 11 with Air Canada titles => N274WA
Air Atlanta 747 => TF-AM? (AMD? AMG? looks like a G for me but I don't have any proof this reg exist.)

Thanks,
Julien

Hi Julien,

As told earlier N274WA is a MD-11 (note the winglets too). And SN-Bigbirdy wrote that the ABD is TF-AMD.

Regards, Robin Bamps.

Beat me to it Robin - N274WA - c/n 48519 MD-11F - those winglets do give the game away!!!

As I'm a really big 707 freak I give it another try. Is there anybody who knows if the IAF 707 is still at Melsbroek, and if so when it will leave? I would appreciate it very much if somebody could help me.

Greetz,
Nik

well, you have to know i spend A LOT of time around BRU, and other airfields (3 times a week is regular, during summer almost every day

) catching birds like these make my day, but somethimes i see nothing for weeks (and i'm talking about spottingdays from 4 in winter, to 13 hours a day; in summer)
so it's all about patience.... and a huge part of luck

(gattering all the possible info can be helpfull to

)

ok thanks for the answers guys sorry for the MD11 (a stupid mistake as I know the plane very well.. I had the info of the DAS nearby.. and I melt them together... whoops!).

Regards.
