The picture mentions Clickair, the article itself Vueling ...HLN.be

That's because both airlines operate flights for each other since their marriage , flight could've been a Vueling flight number.

As a respected newspaper, known for the exceptional good articles ( ), it can't be that hard to mention this

Yes, since the merger, airplanes with both colour schemes are being operated for the "new" Vueling. This was EC-ICQ, an airplane still in clickair colours (built 1991).

Yes, no doubt, HLN are experts at giving incomplete information... They prefer being the first to publish i.s.o. giving complete and correct information. How HLN is, and continues to be the most popular newspaper beats me sometimes :p

Apparently the fire started during push-back, and not during take-off.

HLN.be is not a newspaper but a news website.
Not one of the newspaper journalists works for that website, same case at Nieuwsblad.be and Standaard.be,...
It's like the Vueling-Cickair story...
