I think that they have chosen Ostend above Brussels because they will do nightflights. Jumbo's are not allowed at night in Bru.
They are going to transport fresh flowers, vegetables, fish, etc. So this products have to be here in the morning to sold out at that day.

Does there exist an upgrade kit for 747 engines to give it afterburner effect? Great to blow away the rooftiles of Wiloo.
