An airbus aborted the landing on rwy 20/02. This runway is the shortest in BRU and should normally only be used with northerly winds.
Some minister decided to use some kind of dispersion plan, so that all runways could be used, and that more people are disturbed wiht a/c noise.
The people spreading the rumour of the near-crash are those living in the flightpath of that rwy. They got their houses very cheap and now start to complaint about the noise, so it could no longer be used (except when weather dictates), and thus have less noise probs.
Let's say this rumour has been "adjusted" to serve the purpose.
