I want to get myself a 747car as well! No parking atendant will be tall enough to put a ticket under the windscreenwipers!
I am not surprised at all that many flights to/from AMS where cancelled. Although there was no snow when I left there was a very dense fog. During my 4 hour stay there I managed to see 30 planes, 5 of them moved and the rest of them firmly stuck at the gate.
Shot 5 hours ago. You should be able to see 2 (TWO) ATC towers.
10 years back in one of the large KLM hangars. It then housed a KLM 747 which was going through heavy maintenance and the El Al 747 that crashed a year later in Amsterdam.
I was just a kid then, I can’t remember most of it but some things are still like yesterday. Seeing my granddad stand next to the gear of an the 747 being smaller then the wheel. The completely stripped cockpit with two technicians lying where normally the captains foot would be. Had a great day!
sorry for bringing down the quality all of a sudden! 😀
In this shot you should be able to see 2 ATC towers. The old AMS tower which is no longer in use and the current main tower which has…. disappeared.
I shot this 4 hours ago at AMS. The fog was unbelievable!
The company’s chief executive officer is Tony Camacho, former chief commercial officer of budget no-frills Dutch airline Buzz.

The first regional jet was baack in the sixties, but that was 30 years before the world understood there was a market for it. It was something british with the engines mounted on top of n the wings? Not sure:s. Anyway, Not 50 were built.
That’s the German VFW/Fokker 614. Very similar in capacity to the F28.
Those kind of vortices don’t only happen on wet days. I shot this on a beautiful day with lots of sun and hardly any cloud in sight!
You can clearly see the vortice follows the flaps perfectly, so the flaps cause it.

It’s an optical illusion, the aircraft is probably braking heavily
No its not an optical illusion. If it were the rear wheels would be touching the shadow of the plane.
what happened to their C235s?
no sorry, a month back while visiting the Aviodrome someone told me that probably the constellation would fly to Lelystad sometime near April. From there it will make some flights to airshows, but for this season probably only nearby.
