Amsterdam Cargos in August

Post by james143611 » Sun Aug 27, 2017 3:30 pm

Hello all,

Back from my annual week holiday at Schiphol. Managed to visit the Aviation Mega Store and Lelystad Airport for a bit too, pictures from there will be up at some point. Did these in the morning to do the cargo's later in the day, and apart from Monday and Friday, a majority of the afternoons and evenings was spent at Taxiway Q, my favorite spot, and hard to get away from!

My apologies for the large amount of pictures, I did see quite a variety!

Then they switched ends so stuff was now departing on Polderbaan, which gave an unusual opportunity to snap A6-DDC again going the other way!

This beauty was running about 7 hours late, I did get up early so I could snap it on 18L at it's booked time at 0815, so got it in the afternoon taxiing out instead

This ex-Cathay 747 then rolled up, with rather loud RR RB211's :thumbs:

And a couple on Friday on the viewing deck

C&C most welcome!

Hope you liked them!

Thank you!

Not often you get close to an A300!
