Since the WGA flight had to turn back to MIA after the initial flight phase, it is heavily delayed and will only arrive around sunset. Has anyone an idea of its ETD?

Sunrise instead of sunset?

Sunrise instead of sunset?

It is the other way around (normally it arrives at sunrise, now at sunset) - or do you mean it will remain in BRU overnight to make an early departure tomorrow morning?

Well, the original arrival time was 2130 tonight, so presumable just after sunset. So if it’s so heavily delayed, it might now arrive around sunrise tomorrow? No flight plan has been filed yet.

Thanks! I think the flight was initially planned for today in the morning, but according to FR24, the flight had to turn back to MIA, hence the late takeoff for this one and the ETA around 2130 instead of a morning arrival. I guess it will depart the next morning...

I see now where the confusion came from . I didn’t see the original flight, only the one with STA 21.30 (which is currently enroute with an ETA of 21.50). I would expect the departure around 11-12 tomorrow.

the MD-11 took off last night at Miami but returned because of an issue. And now the problem is solved and they're landing at bru at 21:50LT today
