On to Sunday, summer season starts and the mid dock terrace opens, weather a bit poor to start, but became a real scorcher in the afternoon. Back for another shot of the ramp tour, which reveals a First kingfisher A320 inside a hangar, a bit p'd at not being able to shoot it...but, more KLM calamity helped out on that one, our flight back to AMS had "technical difficulty" resulting in a 3 hour delay, during which the Kingfisher departed :)
However, this meant missing our flight home to Glasgow, and having to endure the pain of staying in the IBIS hotel Schipol (very nice/expensive) at KLM's expense, finally getting home about 11am today, unfortunately the weather at AMS this morning was awful, only shot worth taking was the China Southern 747-400F.

Some more from Sunday. The 146 OH-SAL, you can see has 2 fire engines behind it which had just sprayed it, as it was the inaugural service of the flight, but, i did'nt get my camera together in time to catch it :o

Thanks for the kind comments guys, No probs Kevin....was way too manky to be up the mound anyways :eek: :eek: Agree fully Iain, about the Thai, looked awesome when the sun hit the tail..shot about 750 in total including 76 of the 2 Thai!!! Very lucky with the Kingfisher, however had to shoot from behind glass of the departure lounge in fading light.
RIP Concorde, well worth the visit, just for the ramp tour alone...about 60 feet from the runway at rotation point :eek: This shot of the Thai going up while a tour was at the stop point gives you an idea of how close you are:
lucky beggars :cool: :cool:

Glasgow 24th March, first up is chariot PH-WXD to whisk us to Amsterdam.
Where it was not the most pleasant weather, 3 semi decent shots included, then off on KLM 737 to Zurich(which gets as far as Dusseldorf and does a 360, due to loss of pressurisation, so back to AMS we go) 90 minutes and an aircraft change later, we are off (again) to Zurich,this time arriving 4 hours late, so off to hotel and start again in the morning.
25th in Zurich, shots in no particular order, including some taken on the ramp tour...insanely close to the runway when TCX A330 and LX A340's took off. more in next issue....
