EBOS 16.10.2006

Post by pietn »

Hi everybody,

the day started pretty well (only got up one hour to soon :evil: ). But anyway, went to class untill 15.15, after that, Smetten and me rushed to the airport to go and try catch the (in the meanwhile) famous french C-130 @ EBOS. First we drove to the wrong side of the runway (hadn't checked the winddirection :? ), luckely, smetten has a fast car, but not fast enough when you encouter a problem that is called "trafficlights :evil: and citycars :roll: ". So first we missed the Airline Transport Incorporation AN-12, we saw it come in right over our car. When we then arrived at our spot, it seemed that the C-130 wouldn't fly anymore :( . But luckely we still have our Belgium pride and glory: The Seaking :grin: , he came in for a crewchange and made things up.

Note the the cargodoor of the DC-3 in the first picture blew open by the winddisplacement of the seaking.

Well that was it, I just hear the French C-130 taking off..... :roll:
I certainley will give it a new try tomorrow!

greetings, pietn
