Yesterday evening, #SK2590 began its departure roll while on a taxiway parallel to the runway. Preliminary data shows at maximum speed of 107 kt prior to braking. The aircraft stopped before lifting off and passengers disembarked via air stairs. fr24.com/data/flights...

On Thursday evening 5 February 2026, Scandinavian flight SK2590 from Brussels to Copenhagen, operated with Airbus A320neo SE-ROM, attempted a takeoff from TWY E1 instead of RWY 07R. It aborted its takeoff at high speed and came to a full stop. All pax were evacuated.

Today’s Sun, as seen through a Baader Planetarium AstroSolar Safety Film OD 5.0, designed for safe solar observation with all spotting scopes, amateur telescopes and camera lenses. As you can see, there are quite a lot of ‘active regions’ of sunspots, the biggest one being AR 4366. #sun #astronomy

Yesterday Lufthansa presented a new version of its classic ‘Parabola’ livery on Airbus A321-231 D-AISZ, as part of its 100th anniversary celebrations. Pending a first visit to BRU, here is an image of sister ship Airbus A321-231 D-AIDV which was wearing a similar retro livery in December 2019.

Continuing on a series of photos I posted earlier on, here’s another panning photo I took at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport in late December 2025, featuring KLM Cityhopper Embraer E175STD PH-EXL during takeoff from RWY 36L aka ‘Polderbaan’ and bound for Rennes, France as flight KL1413 AMS-RNS 🇳🇱🛫🛬🇫🇷

Two cool things you need to know about Alex Honnold: - Today he climbed the Taipei 101 skyscraper free solo. - He listened to Tool while doing so. Congrats Alex! #skyscraperlive

A bit of a creative edit of one of my photos featuring Emirates Airbus A380-842 A6-EVD on short finals for RWY 06 at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport in December 2025 🇦🇪🛫🛬🇳🇱 #schiphol #amsterdam #emirates #airbus #a380

So basically in today’s United States, supporters of political opponents get killed #fuckice

Pinguins in Groenland. In het Witte Huis laten ze tegenwoordig werkelijk geen enkele kans onbenut om aan de wereld te tonen over hoe weinig hersencellen ze beschikken.

It’s called B E L G I U M, you fuckers… 🇧🇪

Nieuwste aanwinst voor de collectie voetbaltruitjes is dit officiële en prachtige shirt van de Kalaallit Arsaattartuta Kattuffiat (KAK), ook bekend als de Greenland Football Association. Iedere link met de hedendaagse geopolitieke situatie berust waarschijnlijk niet op toeval 🇬🇱

No need to get so upset for not winning the Nobel Peace Prize Donnie. I didn’t win it either and yet I put an end to all of these terrible wars, saving the lives of millions of people: - Aberbaijan - Andorcha - Georgina - Croatinna - Indonknesia - New Zeakland - Ipaly - Norday - Arbentina - Senedal

Wow Belgium!!! #aurora

We need #greenland…

In a letter to the Norwegian PM, Trump has openly admitted that he is now claiming Greenland because he didn’t win the Nobel Peace Prize. You really can’t make up this stuff anymore. How did humanity suddenly get trapped on the wrong side of the wormhole? Seriously, he needs mental care.

United States of America, present day.

Als het echt moet, trek ik zelf wel naar Groenland om dat prachtige land te verdedigen tegen het imperialistisch alles-kapot-makende kapitalisme van de VS 🇬🇱❄️

For whom it may concern: Jens-Frederik Nielsen is the Prime Minister of Greenland.

Brussels Airlines and Lufthansa Group will roll-out free high-speed Wi-Fi, together with Starlink #brusselsairlines #avgeek

Let there be no mistake: most European leaders disagree with the current US administration, they’re just afraid to admit it. Fortunately, many European (and US) inhabitants aren’t. So dear DJT: Fuck you and your bullying gestapo politics. You won’t succeed. We will resist whether you like it or not.

De oranje president erkent openlijk om een bondgenoot te willen aanvallen. De vice-president waarschuwt Europa om de ‘dreiging’ (want dat is het) serieus te nemen. Ondertussen schieten ICE agenten moeders een kogel door het hoofd. MaAr hEt ZiJn dE dEmOcRaTeN dIe dE GeMoEdErEn oPhItSeN.

Good evening United States! How’s that dictatorship going?

Backyard contrail spotting can be fun. Can you guess all the aircraft types and airlines (most airlines make it quite easy these days 😀 )?

Stephen Miller die zich openlijk afvraagt met welk recht Denemarken het bestuur van Groenland beheert. Die mens is echt zo ver van het padje af dat hij zich nog zou durven afvragen met welk recht onze zon het centrum van het zonnestelsel heeft geclaimed en dat de VS dit zouden moeten zijn…

Continuing on yesterday’s post, here’s another panning shot taken last week at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport’s famous RWY 36L aka ‘Polderbaan’, this time featuring KLM Airbus A321neo PH-AXK rolling down the runway as flight KL1141 AMS-DUB 🇳🇱🛫🛬🇮🇪 #klm #airbus #a321 #schiphol #avgeek

Let’s kick off the new year 2026 in style, with this panning shot of Atlas Air Boeing 747-87UF N859GT rolling down on RWY 36L ‘Polderbaan’ at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport last week, bound for South Korea as flight 5Y8209 AMS-ICN 🇳🇱🛫🛬🇰🇷 #boeing #b747 #atlasair #schiphol #avgeek

Dat de Trump-administratie de president van een soeverein land ontvoert is zeer verontrustend (maar helaas te verwachten met de oranje gek). Dat best wat Europese leiders dit niet eens durven af te keuren is nog veel verontrustender. En zo werd de grens weer een beetje verlegt. Watch out Greenland!

Happy New Year! 🥳🥂

Last virtual flight of 2025 will fly me all the way up north, from Brussels to Santa in Rovaniemi. See you all in 2026! 🇧🇪🛫🛬🇫🇮🎅🏻🎄🥂❄️

Today’s British Airways flight BA390 LHR-BRU, operated with the one and only Airbus A319-131 G-EUPJ, on downwind for RWY 25L during its approach towards Brussels Airport.

I’ll just stay home and watch football matches being played in an empty, sterile stadium. Or maybe I won’t even watch at all. Fuck you, greedy FIFA www.theguardian.com/football/202...

So long Eurovision Song Contest. Thank you for the music.
