The Biac site says

14/06 11:40 Athens OA 145 Estimated 12:05
AB6 Airbus Industrie A300-600 Passenger

So the only AB6 they have is SX-BEM

What's the reason of this upgrade ?

Indeed, and that one touched down on the 25L at 11:43.

The new FQ A320 OO-TCN landed just before the A300.

Well it had about 180 pax on board.

Maybe because this amount of pax is to big for a B734.

Well, anyway I don't mind they're sending this nice bird,
it's something different then the usual B734

greetings

Question: how do you guys find out the destinations of specific aircraft?

Post by **speedbird1** » 14 Jun 2006, 16:25

The biac.be site or flightstats.com or by other means...!

Emirates

@teddybAIR

You need to find a mate who works in airport ops or ATC! If not in Belgium an airband radio (to tie-up the flight nos.)and good bins or a pole to read off the reg's. There is also some very expensive new technology which might help, too.
