A Boeing 747 at Eelde!

After the runway extension program at Groningen Airport Eelde was completed in 2013, widebodies were suddenly a possibility. However, due to reasons we weren’t able to properly receive them yet. Recently that all changed and earlier this week we received our first Boeing 747 for a full stop!

Late June, we got a really nice present from the Oil Spill Response team. They were to send over one of their Boeing 727’s to land and spend a night at Eelde. With a few hours delay, G-OSRA finally became airborne as ‘BRO06’ and set course to Eelde. Naturally I had to be there to see this with my own eyes!
