Re: Obama to Visit Brussel 26 March 2014
Here a link from the scedule from Obama

Stukje uit de hele tekst
Morgenochtend om 9.15 uur begint dan het echte programma. Obama trekt dan opnieuw naar Zaventem vanwaar het met de helikopter Marine One richting vliegveld van Wevelgem gaat. Aankomst: 10.10 uur. De presidentiële colonne rijdt meteen via de E17 door naar Waregem. Om 10.30 uur bezoekt Obama er het Flanders Field American Cemetery and Memorial, de Amerikaanse militaire begraafplaats uit de Eerste Wereldoorlog. Hij doet dat in het bijzijn van koning Filip, premier Elio Di Rupo en burgemeester Kurt Vanryckeghem. Formeel gezien ontvangt Obama er zijn Belgische gasten, aangezien het kerkhof Amerikaans grondgebied is. Er liggen in totaal 368 Amerikaanse soldaten begraven. .

Re: Obama to Visit Brussel 26 March 2014
Same question here.
And where would be the best place to take a picure?

No idea,
Depends on security and some luck, you'll have to try out the whole area.
You can take pictures apparantly from the road-side at Abelag, but you cannot stand on the concrete blocks marking the parking, neither can you use a ladder or any other kind of step.

Somebody able to post a picture of AF1 at Abelag so I can see what to expect before driving 200km? Thx a lot
Re: Obama to Visit Brussel 26 March 2014
Thanks for the info guys.
So ETD is 1845LT as mentioned on the internet a few times.
What runway will probably used? 07L seems logic heading into N-wind.

Hi Rene,
Apparantly today as there where 2 more C-17's.
That makes a total of 6 visited since yesterday evening late.
I guess all of it will be as good as gone now...
