Anyone for the serial of the German Transall that was parked this evening around 18:00h at the Melsbroek ramp?

Can't help you but I would like to know from where you saw it?

The AML parking was not accessible and even guarded when we tried around the same time. Was this just temporary?

Hi,

we were at Abelag/Melsbroek around 20.00h, AML parking was not accessible (guarded). Outside at Melsbroek were the 2 former BAF A.310s (serials and markings removed). One C-130H in front off the hangars, we thought is was CH-03 (read from Abelag side), can anyone confirm? No German C-160 seen.
A MD.900 came in at 20.30h, should have been G-10.
At Abelag only US civil Bizz-jets and one Gulfstream with regi 3B-PGF. Can't find it in the net, maybe a Gvmt plane???? Anyone?

3B-PGF is a regular visitor to Brussels. Have a look on Airliners.net, you'll find a photo there. It is registered in Mauritius, nothing to do with any government.

We were there around 7pm, noted at 15 Wing were: C-130 CH-13, A310 CS-TEI, A330 CS-TFZ and a C-160D. This was parked behind the A330 (hardly visible) and unreadable, but probably 51+12 or maybe 50+45 which were in the vicinity according to SBS (see http://skystef.be/), can anyone confirm? Apparently CS-TMT departed 10/5 with a HiFly callsign, presumably for scheduled maintenance, that might explain the presence from CS-TFZ but what is CS-TEI doing at 15 Wing ? Also on lease ? Also still present were the two ex BAF A310's (CA-01/02) without any markings. Nothing MIL present at Abelag.

Ok thanks, so our CH-03 was CH-13 (that I still needed)! The all white A.330 CS-TFZ taxied out at 20.25h and this one is now in use with 15 wing/BAC.
I saw on the site "skystef.be" with SBS logs from Brussel area that CH-13 arrived around 17.00h, A.330 CS-TFZ took-off with c/s BAF630 and the MD.900 was all day (and at 20.31h) G-12.
C-160D 51+12 is 2 times in this list so arr+dep or flight over and back Brussel, the other serial (50+44? see above) is 1x logged so most likely the candidate for the one on the 15wing ramp.
