KL presence at Chengdu

Recommended Posts

Keith,

 

Thanks a lot for this shot; baaahhhhh, KLM even changed the name into Chinese - guess it's 'Chengdu' ?

Can anyone confirm ?

I'll cross-check the rego for you guys tomorrow, while back in the office ;) but, do I see a C above the cockpit-window ?

 

KLM is the only European airline serving Chengdu non-stop from Europe; no need to transit via PEK or PVG anymore ;)

Yes Pieter, the Chinese characters say its "ChengDu Line/Route".

 

I guess you can translate that way, but really, the last character has no English equivalent. :)

Perhaps "Chengdu ship"? Japnese equivalent of this would be "Maru".
