AMS 04/05/06

The good weather seems to be here to stay! At long last.

There is not a whole lot this time, but here are a few highligths. As always there is more on my site, but nothing too exciting. The Aqaba 737 and the RAF Avia antonov made my day though.

As it stands I got nothing to do june 24th. I might be able to drop by. If you contact me around June 20th I will see what I can do.

Kaagbaan is always your best bet. Polderbaan if you intend to rent a car.

Nice pics, Peter. I really want to go to AMS again soon.

Hehe. What happened to the Seahawk that said AMS was just over-photographed and you did not want to go here? 😉 😀

Ooh that’s a shame. I am not available during the week. And when I finally do get my holiday, I intend to spend it outside the mudhole more commonly referred to as the Kingdom of the Netherlands and Colonies. Have always wanted to visit the US and have decided that whatever happens this is going to happen this year.

Now to get a few days of. You would not believe this was my first day off since my MAN trip late november!

Hiya Pete,

Been looking at weekdays during mid August as that’s when Jet2 seem to be cheapest :).

16th August for £44 seems to be a good option at the moment, is a Wednesday 🙂

Great shots. That KLM Fokker 50’s bumpy touchdown is the best of the lot for me. 🙂

Have very nearly booked a flight to AMS a couple of times this week, really MUST get one booked!

When do you intend to go? If it is during the weekend and I got nothing to do I might join you.

Very nice. I’m definitely AMS-bound later this summer.

Cool

Were they taken from the Kaagbaan?

yes

(hope I got that name right)

You did.
