Re: SPOTM February 2019 - Jumbo Jubilee - 50 years of the mighty Boeing 747
Lots to choose from, but for this I had to pick something from Amsterdam Schiphol Taxiway Q. My favorite spot at the airport and my all time favorite place to watch a 747 roll by. Just having an un-obstructive view as this beast slowly taxi's by you with the wingtip not at all far from you is just, in my opinion, one of the best experiences.
