Hi SM Tang, good and clear shots. :good:

 

Thanks for showing the close up view of BQP. It seems there are still a lot of empty spots for photos. :blink:

For sure mine wasn't there as I was not aware of the FB thing. :pardon:

Quite a lot of repetition too.

Was I? I thought the weather was bad when I was there. Anyway, here's a few more :drinks:

 

As pathetic as this may sound, this is actually my first catch of an AF plane :yahoo:

One could be forgiven if you thought you were in the States.

PH-KCK, actually - I love three-holers. I'm not sure how BVC turned up twice in the series, haha :pardon:

 

Shame I couldn't be there long. My stomach kept forcing me to go to the toilet! :D

Goodday,

 

Some contribution from AMS, havent been there for a looooong time, but when I was going to YUL some weeks ago I made 1 hr time before going to the terminal to nail a few planes, the same for yesterday when I came back from DXB. There was a huge traffic jam so I decided to stay make some pics :)

 

A few from those 2 times;

 

This one got flown into AMS and will become gatekeeper at the new Fokker businesspark I believe.

I think the engines were leased from some UK company to fly her into AMS, so after landing, engines were send back right away.

Ask uncle Pieter why I like this shot :pardon:

0AMS004.jpg

 

2 special Deltas this day (b4 going to DXB)

 

0AMS005.jpg

 

0AMS006.jpg

 

Don't you just love triholers :D The one most far away is mine to DXB (KCE)

 

0AMS007.jpg

 

On return from DXB, never knew CX was departing so early in the day, and departed with this less rwy use, I guess a flight for LHR might have diverted earlier that day..

 

0AMS008.jpg

 

And incl. some winterweather/snow. Both fly for Saudi Cargo

First one blasting away snow with MPC MD11 taxiing and KLC F70 rotating behind

N200UU picture: I guess for 'the Frisian flag' passing on the highway ? :pardon:

 

CX is flying HKG-AMS-CDG v.v. nowadays, so leaving for CDG...nothing to do with the LHR diversions last weekend...

KLM Asia's T7, new the Asia livery on the T7! :)

This isnt a regular either.

 

IHX004.jpg

 

Always lovely to see an MD11, doesnt matter in which angle!

 

IHX005.jpg

 

IHX006.jpg

 

Now and then we still get a few classic 747s! Breath taking plane with a beautiful sound coming out of those old GE engines!

First Martinair MD11 who is phased out, parked in the maintenance area @ AMS next to PH-BTG

 

IHX010.jpg

 

When this plane is coming we only know it 1 hour in advance, I checked for it the early morning, it wasnt scheduled or unknown so a really beautiful surprice in the afternoon!! :yahoo:

 

IHX011.jpg

 

Missed her on approach on 36R, standing for an open bridge.. :S Where she overflew my car, but still she couldnt run away from me. Seen here taxiing towards 36L for departure. KE is soon changing to A333 on ICN-AMS so really really happy with this catch!

 

IHX012.jpg

 

KLMs new A333s

My last takeoff of the day before heading home trying to be just in time before afternoon traffic started to jam.
