Thanks for regularly feeding this thread. This is an RJ-100: Brussels Airlines disposed of all of its RJ-85s. ;)

Many thanks to you===============RJ-100 :oops: :oops:

Hi,

26/09
High pressure sitting over the UK over the weekend, so thought I'd make the most of it and take the scope to the CPT VOR. Movement and conditions were fantastic throughout the day, so good that I went back for more on Sunday. :D
