It’s a great place, loads of movement, huge airport but constant KLM planes can bore you right off!

AMS is just awesome, the one place that tops MAN for me, can’t wait to go back!

I’m thinking of a visit during the summer
good idea
what is their viewing deck like
Massive, but facing the light for the most part of day
Can you only see certain movements from there,will i miss anything?
You will be able to log everything except for some cargo and short haul movements. BRING BINOCULARS For photography though you are limited to about half the operations taxiing by in the distance with a good chunk nearby.
Does anyone have examples of photos from there.All help would be great 🙂
Not a lot from the observation platform. I do not really like it as it has the light facing the wrong way. Around the airport exceptional spots can be found that offer unobstructed views of the runways. Please visit my website for details about spotting at AMS.

Here’s some I took last year from the Viewing deck

you do miss movements but IMO the stuff you do see makes up for it, hence I’m going for a day trip in August again!!
