You did not tell, you lucky guys, that Brussels Airport also offered you a guided visit to top the experience!

Thanks, Jan Van der Cruysse!

Here my contribution when the frame was lining up for rwy 25R.
Perhaps someone recognises her/himself sitting in the back, front side seemed empty.

While writing my TR, I realized that I was missing two regs: the one of the B757 from DL and the one from the white 757 stored in front of the SN Hangar. Has someone noted them?

And here we go: the fulll TR is posted on my blog: http://point-n-spot.blogspot.com/2011/0 ... 32011.html (with all the pictures, it would have been too much work to have it directly on the forum, and I can be a bit lazy sometimes :mrgreen: )

Now also on the Facebook page of Brussels Airlines: http://www.facebook.com/home.php?sk=gro ... 3798294259

Apparently it is a nice promotion for them...

And also a nice collection of pictures posted by Brussels Airlines on flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/brusselsai ... 271174154/

For those interested,

OO-LTM returned from the paint shop late last night and is now back in BRU at H117 in full Korongo colours!

Looks good!

Wonderful pictures! You have "the Eye" :)

I see you got a complete scaled RJ-100... in the box of mine, there were two tails, no horizontal stab, and no stand :cry: ... maybe it was the "scrapped model" version ;)
