Hi everyone, I spent a very enjoyable day on the spectators terrace at Amsterdam’s Schiphol Airport last Friday (17th). The continued existence of this facility is to be applauded, however, it is not the easiest of locations to achieve true definitive images of the aircraft as they move around the taxiways due to the almost ever-present APU emmissions from (mainly) the KLM heavies.
Here is a selection of the better visitors of the day – more to follow,
Cheers, Peter

Am I right that the Sterling photo is from the new low-cost terminal?
Hello Harrie, yes, I photographed the Sterling B737 through the windows which overlook the pan used by the low-cost carriers.
Regards, Peter

Nice photos, you managed to avoid the APU heat quite nicely. To avoid the APU-heathaze just try some of the perimter spots next time. Getting to the Kaagbaan is a piece of cake even without car.
Especially like the Kaliningrad Avia and the Buraq Air as I have not got photos of those myselve yet. Seen the Kaliningrad Avia at DUS last weekend but no photo.
