So there is no second VC25?
The VC25 (20h55) is the president
E4B (22u15) is the staff/Administration?
Like that?

20h55-xxxx USAF VC-25
21h25-xxxx USAF C-32
15h00-xxxx Spanish Air Force A310 T.22-2

So both 747-200 will come to Brussels?

So both 747-200 will come to Brussels?

No, only one.

The backup is a C32 (call sign SAMxx)

An E4B ("doomsday plane") also is expected.

16:40 (15:40L) AF1 departed from Newquay en route to LHR from where he will proceed to Windsor to meet the Queen.

Was scheduled to depart at 15:25L so is slightly behind schedule at the moment .

[Xan]

For backyard spotters:

Unless the runway of departure at LHR and runway of arrival at BRU still change, this is the likely route from LHR to BRU:

Sweden (GLF4) and Croatia (CL60) en route.

Sweden? They are not members of NATO!

Sweden (GLF4) and Croatia (CL60) en route.

Sweden? They are not members of NATO!

There are several summits:
- NATO (14/6)
- EU-Canada summit (14/6),
- EU-US summit (15/6)

Although for the latter two, the EU is represented by Michel (EU Council) and Von Der Leyen (Commission).

Sweden and other member states may be on their way to a Council meeting (=Council of National Ministers) of 14/6 and 15/6.

GAF 15+01 picked up Merkel at Newquay, flew to Berlin and now seems on its way to Brussels.

GAF 15+01 picked up Merkel at Newquay, flew to Berlin and departed from there again. Headed in our direction.

Does anyone know whether it is true that 01 is closed from 7 p.m. and if so, which runway the AF1 will take? 07 or 25?

[Yves-A3YY]

Do you know whether security measure will block us from seeing the AF1 landing ?
If it lands on 25R, where to go to see it ?
Thanks.

[GoldenEagle]

01 is still in use.

According to Airport Mediation, we might revert to 25L/25R at 20:00
