I’m really pleased with the responses to these Airline of the Week threads. It’s particularly nice to see contributions coming from users who don’t usually upload a lot of pictures to the forum.
As suggested, let’s go with KLM this week. With so many european spotters on here, I imagine that some of you will have quite a lot of KLM shots, but as with previous weeks let’s try and keep it down to just one or two shots each.
A couple of 737s from me, both at Heathrow. One old 737-300 in the old colours, and a 737-900 in the current livery

Great subject.
being in Australia we don’t see KLM anymore. I have always been drawn to the Blue they use for their livery.

Very nice DC-8 robert,just a suggestion for future threads,if we could pick an airline that use a varierty of a/c to europe for example THY. they use widebodies & narrows to IRL/UK,as opposed to say RYR or EZY which is the same a/c type.

A very good idea for a topic ad some great shots so far throughout all 3 airline groups! I have no KLM shots to share seeing as I don’t have many KLM pictures in my very limited collection and the ones I do have are so bad they would bring disrepute to this fine forum!!
I don’t know what the protocol is for suggestions of future airlines but may I suggest IB as I do have a major crush on that airline! Ironically I have have no shots of that at all but I will keep an eye on this topic and may perhaps post one day if I find a good shot of a featured airline!

The OP did ask for just one or two shots from each contributor, Maikel. Seven is rather more than two! 🙂
Most of us have done as the OP wished so would you mind editing your posting so that it only includes your two favourite shots, please?
Thanks
GA
ETA: Thanks a lot, Maikel. I would have kept the shot of the B777 in Skyteam livery, personally. 🙂

One of my favorites! And that’s not because I’m from Holland:cool:

more than 2 i know but these are all i got from a big collection,dont seem to snap KLM that much
By: wannabe pilot - 6th January 2010 at 23:57
Out of about 50 shots I’m afraid I couldn’t narrow it down any further than these 3 (I’ve almost forgot how to do this, so long since I uploaded anything here!)
By: LBARULES - 6th January 2010 at 22:40
Good choice of airline! Two from me, the first of which no doubt be remembered by a couple of fellow forum members as being a particularly wet day!
Oh yes! That’s where my second shot came from. Loving this thread, but it’s making me want to go back to Amsterdam!
