Sabena redux?

Postby microlight » Sat Sep 02, 2006 11:57 am

Before flying home from Frankfurt last night, I heard the announcement of a 'Sabena' flight, with an 'SN' flight number. So does anyone know if SN Brussels Airlines has become Sabena again?

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Hm. Perhaps the lady announcer was thinking about something else at the time...

I think many Belgians still think of SN Brussels as Sebena, when I went to Brussels, I had about 3 people ask if I had flown in on Sebena, and when the hotel checked to return leg, the concierge told me my 'Sebena' flight was running on schedule. I don't know if I ran into 4 people that had terrible memories, or if it is a genrelly acknowledged thing!
