It's not too early to announce the visit of the first A350 ever to BRU.
Around 09.15, this beauty sporting the colours of Finnair will be gracing the Brussels Airport tarmac. What runway it will land on is as yet unclear but we (and Brussels Airport) will try to keep you posted! Only three more nights...

I guess it will be rwy 01 due to the wind from NE the coming days.

Indeed: based on the latest weather forecast, the Finnair A350 should be landing on RWY 01. Tip: check
http://www.batc.be for actual runway use.

Maybe a visitor for the compass swing, I've
seen it before with flights from EHBK.

Current usage of the runways seems to be 25R for departures, 25R and 25L for arrivals. I'm still hopeful for a 25R arrival

The 350 flew over our house on his way back, we live quite close to the airport, but I was incredibly amazed by it's quietness, really awesome!
