Hmmm, just wondering; as the Kaagbaan will be closed soon due to maintenance, you don't think that would be the moment they could close off the spotting place as well ?

Grtz, John

[i]Kan ik mij vergissen, maar heb ik gisteren de eerste voorbereidingen mogen aanschouwen voor de aanleg van de spottersplek langs de Polderbaan ( 2e rotonde / hek), in de vorm van rioolputten / buizen die daar gestald zijn ???? [/i]

Yep that's right. Work started to expand the second (or first) spot along the 18R-36L last week. Rumors are telling me that this will only be a temporarly solution until you spotters have chosen a alternative for the 06-24 spot. But you know; nothing is sure at Schiphol!!

And as far as I know with the coming of the maintance period for the 06-24 (two weeks starting from 25-6) there isn't any work planned on the spotting place. The contractors are busy enough with the work on the runway. But here also; you never know at Schiphol!!
I do know that the expanding of the S-apron will start later this year. But to my knowledge it is only the site where the Menziesdome still stands. S-apron will then be expanded with to more stands for a 747.

Greetings RicoS

Which side of the Polderbaan are they working on?

Westside of the Polderbaan. Second gate / second small roundabout ( so not opposite the new tower) at the future spot for us spotters !!!. You cant miss it !!

Rumours are the spot will only be closed somewhere after the summer season...
So there is still time for a return visit!

AAA!

To quote a very famous austrian spongebob: I'll be back!

Any news for kaagbaan closure? I want to book trip for first september week!

Not that it really belongs to this topic, but be aware that in weeks 36 and 37 the kaagbaan is out of use for the maintenance which was postponed from last weeks.

I guess the spot still will be open than but there won't be any plane's to spot this weeks........

Hi RicoS,

Can you tell me which months have weeks 36 and week 37 in them please ?

Thanks

Derek

EHAM · Post by **EHAM** » 15 Jul 2007, 09:18

I can:

week 36 = Sunday 2 September - Saturday 8 September
week 37 = Sunday 9 September - Saturday 15 September

So the answer is: September
