Re: Wie wat waar vliegt daar - 2022 MIL

RCH115 C-130H 90-1798 flying West to East currently over Schiphol towards Amersfoort at 18.000 ft.

edit 1: and so is 91-1652 as RCH433 at 13:50(although at a bit higher altitude).

edit 2: ah, 90-1796 (RCH260) seems to be heading in the same direction at 14:03 over Schiphol.

Re: EHAM 12-11-2021

China Eastern A330 B-5961 is turning onto finals of 18R now, as it seems to be diverting from original destination Luxembourg (as it seems to have made an attempt there before flying to Amsterdam).

Re: EHAM 05-10-2021

Around 0905 I noticed a Challenger blocking runway 22 with a few yellow airport vans around it. I presume this was N858CV, which was scheduled to arrive not long before. Does anyone know the reason behind this?

Thanks,

DC-3 C-KAWI from Keflavik seems to be approaching the Dutch coastline near Alkmaar at 13.000 feet. Let's hope for clear skies!

Can I suggest that the title of the thread is to be changed to the correct month? Are we possibly talking about July 8th?
