Anyone who has the reg of the B73NG that was parked at Abelag on the 15th of May? It was a full white plane with a blue cheatline. Think it was still there on the 16th. Plane looks very much like http://www.airliners.net/open.file?id=1124429 , anyone who can confirm?

Kind regards

Hi all

Saw today on the internet that the PM of Turkey is visiting Belgium and the EU. Is he coming with the A319 of the Turkish Governement? If yes, until when?

Thanks in advance
Kind regards ;)

Hi everybody ! :)

On 4 & 5 October 2010, the ASEM8 Summit is taking place in Brussels. In regard of the ASEM members, I made a list of all possible VIP/military or government birds that may come.
I would be grateful to know the date and ETA of these VIP visitors in order to relieve the information on different aviation forums in advance (if possible of course ;) ).

Kinds regards

Guys,

Where is Abeleg, do you need à ladder to see something?

What are also good places?

There is no Abeleg.

If perhaps you meant Abelag, you can get there by following the signposts for "General Aviation Terminal" or so; it is on the western outskirts of the site, close to the 07L threshold.
For myself I never used a ladder there, in my spotting days, yet could make some acceptable snaps - acceptable for myself, at least. Getting out a ladder would be a sure means of upsetting the security staff, and that's what a spotter prefers to avoid.

I remember security to be rather variable, sometimes they wouldn't bother at all, sometimes they'd be circling my famous blue van before I even stopped the engine. The place is shut off when receiving visitors of importance, and at such times you certainly should not insist. I'll always remember the one time I slipped through - by sheer accident - and eyed Czech president, the famous late Mr. Vaclav Havel, from perhaps 10 m. distance.

Kwestie van den onnozelaar uit te hangen wss? Je kan dat ook op een normale manier tegen die persoon zeggen.

OT: In my opinion you do not need a ladder, I always shoot through the entrance door (you have enough place to stick most lenses in). Pictures are mostly good when the weather is good and of course only for the planes that are quite near you.

Does THE security looks strange when you take pictures through THE green entrance door?

Never had any problems with them, they have never asked me to leave, nor given me strange looks.. Maybe I was just lucky, or maybe those people actually understand what you are doing and dont ask any questions :)

Hello,

Is it still allowed to take pictures from the soccer field at Nossegem?

The trees are gone there so they see you standing there from the street.
