Scramble Messageboard

Ok, thanks for that, much appreciated.

Will be visiting BRU from the 1st - 3rd April for the summit, does anyone know if the visiting delegations are likely to park their aircraft on the main aprons (presumably round about the Abelag area) or are there likely to be aircraft parking at Melsbroek?

Many Thanks,

Neil.

Would like to come over from the U.K. for this event as it sounds if there will be a lot of interesting aircraft present. Just wondering what it will be like security wise for spotting. Anyone got any ideas as to whether the viewing terrace would remain open or would be closed as a security measure?...

C5-RTG IL-62 Gambian Government

TT-ABD B737 Tchad Government.

MD 500E, G-WOOW crashed at Coll de Sa Gramola on Palma de Mallorca on 12-11-11.

Reports state that it was on fire prior to impact with the ground.

Sadly both occupants perished.

Hi there,

Just had a request from a friend who is currently in Munich for the serial of a USAF B737 of some description that was there on the 15-8-11.
Any help much appreciated.

Thanks,

Neil.

Hi there, Went to the USA in February this year. Flew initially to Philadelphia where I spotted airside for 4 hours quite discreetly, just using mini bins when required and was not bothered at all. Flew on to Miami where I stayed at the "Comfort Inn and Suites" from which the 2 near runways arrivals...

Visited yesterday were Berlin's Tegel and Schonefeld airports, both with excellent terraces open, although both have very minimal cover should the weather be bad (as it was yesterday!!)

I can highly recommend the Hotel Linda at Can Pastilla for a base near the airport. If you get a high level room facing the city, all arrivals on 06L and departures on 24R can be read off with ease. Large windows at the end of the passageway to the elevators enable departures from 06R to be read off...

Both viewing decks are open till 2000 if I'm not mistaken and all aircraft can be read off from one or the other depending on runway direction. After these close there isn't normally a great deal due in unless you need German charter aircraft and I think the airport closes at 2300. There are some wi...

Noted on delivery through Shannon on Saturday 29th December were 2 Cubana Tupolev 204s. CU-T1701 and CU-T1702. They routed Moscow-Shannon -Gander.
