I see that, my friend in houston told me about it. It is with privatair color with a KLM logo on the side of the front door. Can't wait to see the A330, it might be the only A330 to came to IAH, if LH don't replace their A340 with A330 because they already did for their FRA-DFW route. I know AF replaced their 772 into stretched 773ER for CDG-IAH route. The KLM i used to see in IAH is mostly with "KLM ASIA" marking and has a combi cargo door on the back left of the fuselage. Do KLM just uses the combi 747 to IAH? About the heritage, sure I'll share. Yes I'm from Dutch ancestors which sail and came through Malacca long time ago. The Dutch is from my dad's side and my mom's side is actually from a chinese pilgrims who also came through malacca. My dad don't really have a dutch look since my grandma is actually from an Indian ancestor which also came through malacca. My family is mixed up from different region. inside me, only 1/4 part of me has the malaysian blood and many people always confused and thought I'm not from malaysia and born outside of malaysia because me, my brothers and sisters all have a dutch look. Some of my friends call me a "Flying Dutch Boy" since i like aviation. Azuddin

I do heard about that lately. KLM uses 738 or 739 for this route. Is it a non-stop service? I sometimes saw KLM 767-300 during night at IAH. I'm hoping to see KLM operate the A330 to IAH. I've saw KLM 747 a few times here at KUL. My dad actually like travelling on it to or from AMS. KLM is my favourite european based airline, actually any airline in Skyteam is my favourite. What I like about KLM is that it is from a country where my heritage actually begin. Azuddin

The KLM 747-400 is one of the most attractive daily visitor. Only KLM uses 747 to Houston. Other 747 are only freightere flight. Anytime i go spotting at IAH, I go in the afternoon about 2.00PM where the Euros like KLM, BA, AF and LH coming in. And i also wait until 4.00PM at the other side of the airport and wait for the KLM to depart and watch it banking. that KLM shot is for u Peiter. Azuddin

If you guys want to go spotting at IAH, I can give the guide and place with good view. Be careful, TSA and airport security might be around. you can get a view like this from the top of the parking lot at Terminal D. azuddin gallery @ myaviation.net or like this from a road at the back of the airport, see the attachment Sorry, don't have any good spotting equipment. Only regular 3.2MP and 5.0MP Sony Cybershot. Azuddin

i thought so it's from imperial hill because the shot is not quiet fimiliar to me. I only saw the hill when i was in CO 757-200 to IAH. I saw the hill when the plane taxying to get to 25R. I saw the hill once again when i was on MH94 from KUL-TPE. Yuh Loh, you live in Dallas? Dallas is nice. During my trip to SFOT last year, I went spotting at DFW during afternoon where there's a lot of Euro arrival like Lufthansa, BA and others and i also went to C.R. Smith AA Museum. see you later, i'll let you know when i return to Houston but I don't know when because since my dad work in Africa my family spend most time in Kuala Lumpur, which is near where i go study.

whoa nice shot Khor. Are u taking those shots from the hill close to runway 7L & 25R (correct me if wrong)? It looks like all these planes approacing from the pacific. I love the Continental 738 shot. Actually i never went to the hill. i used to go to the park in front of in and out burger, parking lot in front of staples or roadside close to 7R & 25L. Never spoting, only sighting. I do spotting in Houston IAH. Azuddin
