59-year-old Luc B. from Nijlen must be the most famous helicopter pilot in the country. If celebrities or VIPs need to be transported during the Tomorrowland dance festival, Luc B. is always there with his helicopter company Heliventure FTO.
One of the prominent figures who was flown over the festival site by Luc B. was Jan Jambon (N-VA), the former Minister of the Interior and current Flemish Prime Minister of the Flemish government. In June 2023, Luc B. experienced his moment of glory as a helicopter pilot.
After all, it was B. who circled above the stadiums with a helicopter during the crazy title battle between Antwerp, Genk and Union, with the championship cup
Detectives from the Brussels federal police took action on Tuesday as part of a major investigation into international cocaine trafficking. Detectives carried out searches across the country and arrested 22 suspects, including three suspected corrupt police officers who allegedly leaked confidential information to the gang. The investigators also raided the building of the AED Studios in Lint, where Luc B.’s office was searched. The investigators also searched the airport building in Knokke.
The well-known helicopter pilot was arrested and detained by the investigating judge. B. may have helped the gang’s leaders smuggle packages of cocaine from Belgium to the United Kingdom. The investigators are investigating whether B. would have used his helicopters. It is striking that Heliventure FTO has been offering flights to London for some time. And in the past, Luc B.’s company is also said to have carried out urgent organ transports to the United Kingdom.
