It's a flight to Kosovo, Macedonia and Serbia with 42 illegals (+ police) on board: their asylum request in Belgium has been refused and they are being repatriated.

(I don't know the reg)

Not 100% sure, but most probably CS-TFZ. Flew as BAF630 yesterday as well.
Tot hier en verder

@HVS89: yes, it looks funny to see the big A330 carrying so few people. But the military have always operated along their own logic, and economy was never a priority there.

As for the N262: what makes it so very famous right now?

Those passengers refused to leave Belgium on a voluntary basis, they will do everything to stay in Belgium. So I think that every passenger is accompanied by 1 or 2 police officers resulting in a full flight.

Note: my opinion on the repatriation and the humanity of it I will keep to myself ....
