RE: What Is An "company 747"?

For example an ATC transmission reading like this:
"KLM XXX line up runway XX behind landing company 747!" means, that the landing traffic also is a KLM aircraft!
Company is therefore not really an airline....!

Hi! Former D-AERP left TUS app. 4 weeks ago and can now be seen in nearly full LTU colours in Oostende (OST)/Belgium. According to some romours it will be converted into a freighter.

RE: Last Sign Of Life: LTU L-1011

Does anyone know, if the aircraft is still in OST and if it is visible from outside the airport?
Due to the fact, that I´m living near LTUs´ homebase it would be great for me to see one of the 1011´s, which flew over my house day for day until 1995!
