@ Tomba: hahaha, exactly my thoughts too! if you ask me, he's getting to good and now even vortex shots, i've gotta be dreaming!

So, like Douwe allready said, we spent some hours together today, and we had great fun.......i was hoping for wet runways and clearing sky´s combined with low level clouds, but sadly it stayed pretty grey for allmost the whole period. But that was about the only downside of this day.....

1- 747-400, China Airlines

2- 747-400 Freighter, world cargo. i like the reflections of the numbers from the runway that you can see in the belly....

8- actual angle

9- very regular, but i still like this angle with this plane

10- MD-11F, Centurion Cargo, this one showed up right after Douwe left (sorry for that Douwe), came out of nowhere (banking hard and made a very short final, guess visual approach), and suddenly there it was. for me the bonus of the day!

11- MD-11F, world cargo (all white)


schiphol 05-06-2011 257 by Menno Mennes, on Flickr

13- A-340, Turkish airlines, terrible light, but i have it. This one had problems getting his gear in, i was able to follow it for about two minutes, with his gear still down. When i had Douwe on the phone, he told me he saw it passing over and finally was able to get his gear up....

Thanks for the info, I was already wondering why I didn't see or hear it!

[wild weasel]

Your welcome Gietje....oh, and Douwe, registration on that Centurion Cargo MD-11, believe it or not, but i don't have it. I have made several pictures of it, and even an allmost 90 degree angle picture.....the registration is relativity small and dissapearing behind the wing i have even checked radar for you, but it doesn't show up! (looks like a ghost plane)......

I'm sure somebody else here on scramble will have it. i saw two guys at the fence on the left (east side) when this plane did came in, maybe they will have it....

look for the numbers on the nosewheeldoor.
