alex.gill 0 Report post Posted June 19, 2012 Great stuff from LGG Cornelis, I've been hoping to get there for a while. I've heard there's a large fence around most of the airport - do you need a ladder to shoot over it? Rgds, Alex Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pieter C. 5 Report post Posted June 20, 2012 18R is closer to Haarlem than Amsterdam, actually: look at Arkefly picture and see the Tower ? That's Haarlem...guess, in a straight line, it's only 6-8 kms... Too bad you missed the ABC 747-800Freighter... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cornelis Boersma 0 Report post Posted June 21, 2012 (edited) Nice shots again Ian hehe I have some of the same rego's taking off on 24 or 18L a few hrs later the same day A few from me of the those 2 days when you were here, some regulars, 1 special and some crosswind landings Wxr wasnt that good all weekend long, so nice to shoot from here even in the morning when "facing the sun" Some crosswind landings, maaaaan!! The Antonov was fighting the wind sooo much! From really far away I thought it was a British Aerospace with some odd landing light.. when she came closer.... hehe I like this angle btw from ground level During crosswindlandings some prefere to step on their right leg first Others prefere left for their first step Never do so much bizzers, here a few, with one special from China, An Fokker 50 operated by Denim Air for... The airline I havent checked out yet.. and some Dorniers of Dutch Coast Guard Norwegian departing 24 with DC3 doing sightseetour in the area, The Delta 763 is lining up 27, which is rarely used for takeoffs!! Martinair 11 taking off 24, AZ and AY taking off 36L, the AY 1W Logojet is the sametime as Ian, just from another angle Edited June 21, 2012 by Cornelis Boersma Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pieter C. 5 Report post Posted August 1, 2012 Is that a fly pass by 4 classic near the tower? Correct, Waiping...they came from the Texel Airshow and consist of 1 Beech18 and 3 Fokker S11 aircraft... Nice shots of KCH, CeeBee...they started to 'break-up' her already (engines will be trucked to LAX and flown back to AMS), as well as other parts missing already - see Facebook...very sad indeed...
