Just like when driving a car and use a map, aircraft also use 'maps'.
(And most have computers to program the route you fly....)

Don't know if it's already mentioned, just spotted a KLM aircraft with Transavia callsign on SBS radar

Maybe one of the lease aircraft

Today the 28th PH-BXN flew two flights for Trans. Think this is an incident and not a leased aircraft (yet).

Hi

Luchtvaartnieuws mentions June 16, 2008 as delivery date for the first A320-200 for Amsterdam Airlines (PH-AAX)

Cheers,
Eric

I would have expected this one to show up in HV colours.

It might get stickers at AMS.

Also:

The slotcoordination website shows two positioning flights with B739 equipment to AMS:

May 15th as FUA091 ex PMI 14:30 UTC

Jun 25th as FUA091 ex PMI 14:30 UTC

It also shows the departure of a B739 to LGW on May 24th as FUA 492.

This might give us a clue when to expect the Futura 737-900's at Schiphol.

Bye, Chris.

Boeing 737-96NER:

(Futura should be back in summer 2008 with two aircraft:)

EC-KQQ (32559/2559) leased summer 2008 (Apr - Sep), regi/msn assumed.
EC-... (?????) leased summer 2008 (Jun - Dec)

EC-KQQ is msn 35223/2559
EC-KQR is msn 32559/2590

Both aircraft delivered last week to Futura / PMI.
I guess these 2 will go into service with ArkeFly.

Fokker 50:

PH-KVC - wfu aprox 06-2008
PH-KVD - wfu aprox 09-2008

WFU date postponed due to additional F70/100 maintenance.

No further info on this...

Bye, Chris.

KVC is now in her Phase-out program @ AMS. Is scheduled to be converted to Freighter (no details yet about the configuration) and should join Miniliner, Italy.

KVD is going the same route.

Greetingz,

Hurricane.

Both aircraft will be fitted with an E-class interior and large cargo door as on the PH-LMA and -LMB.

Yorden

As far as I can see the PH-KVC is still flying, at least flights planned tomorrow. I think PH-KVD made it's last flight on the 6th of May as KL1753/1754 to/from BRE. No flights after this date.
