On 14 October, a private aircraft accidentally landed at Klein Brogel Air Base (Belgium), the two pilots were certain to have landed at Zwartberg airport – a small airport 20 kilometers South of Kleine Brogel. 

The private aircraft – that departed from Goetsenhoven – landed without proper clearance. Instantly, security staff surrounded the aircraft and its two passengers. Police officers came to the Air Base and made a report on the incident. The two were able to leave the Air Base, but – according to Belga – without their aircraft.

Working for 25 years in the aviation industry, I changed my career and became a firefighter/EMT in 2021. I like to spend my free time with my two sons, girlfriend, family and friends. I love to travel, wine and dine and support my favourite football squad KV Mechelen. Once an Ironman 70.3 finisher and dreaming of completing a full distance.
