Hey Website thing ....
We are working in the aviation world , if you look first to my post you should see that LGE is the VOR-BEACON of Liege Airport Belgium !
a plane is always descending to a beacon, intersection,NDB or under atc vectoring not to a IATA code of an airport !
i was talking in atc langauge so i say LGE as everyone should know on here , -1 then it seems
any correction is always welcome.

Goodevening,
Thanks for the pictures !
Hopefully we will see this bird in better weatherconditions.
Grnkg, Maastricht-spotters-club, thanks for the updates on this item !
And I put some money on (as a matter of speaking) on the job Grnkg does : I truly believe the fact he can't make any mistakes, so I guess this member is a traffic controller.

Not quite, back in 2002, TNT already had a 747-400F, registered OO-TJA.b-west wrote:Am I correct to understand that this is the first Belgian registered Boeing 747-400? (I know, it's a 747-400F)
But that was leased from Atlas Air and operations ceased after about 6 months.
So, no, it's not the first 747-400 on the Belgian register.
But it is the first 747-400 on the Belgian register, that is also owned by a Belgian operator.
I know that in most press releases about TNT's 747's you also hear the name Guggenheim Aviation Partners (an a/c lessor). But that's mostly because the deal with Boeing is for 4 747's, of which the last 2 (OO-THC and OO-THD) will be fully leased from Guggenheim. The first 2 (OO-THA and OO-THB) are fully owned by TNT Airways s.a. (society anonyme = company registered under Belgian law), at € 133 million a piece!
Kind regards,

Greetings all,
Does anyone know the UTC departure time ex PAE please (I've seen 0715 reported elsewhere but don't know if this is local, UTC or what) and also the callsign/ARCID please?
Thanks

And kudos to TNT! They seem to be doing quite well, maybe it's just my impression but I get the idea I see more and more of their delivery vans and trucks around the country.

He gave just information about the arrival of the new B747-400 of TNT Airways. Nothing more, nothing less.
About his "silence", that's not difficult to explain because there are not that much people who work for TNT Airways certainly when you compare between labor and employees.
More important is that the B747-400 is here and can start now the new line to China and other routes.
