AMS Photography

Post by MartinNeedham »

Hi All,

I'm visiting AMS next Thursday and Friday and have been using the Scramble airfield guide to work out where to shoot from.

Could anyone post some images of aircraft taxiing from Rwy 18R/36L and landing on 18C/36C from Spot 13 (Vijfhuizerweg), I've had a look on Airliners.net and can't seem to find any :(

I would be very grateful as any images from there be of great use to me.

Many thanks,

Martin

Warning for that spot: don't park your car there, might cost you a fine. If you follow the road a few hundred metres south, there's plenty of space to leave your car and walk to this spot.

Some take-off shots from runway 36C, shot from spot 13: here
For landings on 18C in the afternoon there's a much better spot (not mentioned on the chart) than spot 13, it's at the intersection between Hoofdweg and the A5 highway.
here and here two more examples of aircraft taxiing to/from runway 18R/36L, also taken at spot 13.
