KLM's second 737-700 landing on Rwy 18R.

Arriving from Dubrovnik in Transavia's featureless 2015 livery.

A dull grey winter day, typical for Amsterdam, brought this very nice visitor, not typical for Amsterdam at all. Became CU-C1258 shortly after this photo was taken, then CU-C1419, then sold to Aerocom as ER-IBE in May 2002. It reportedly went to Angola as D2-FCO in 2006, where it was broken up at Luanda in Aug 2015.

LZ-BEI rotating on take-off from 24, nicely lit by a low, early-morning sun. This former LOT aircraft (ex SP-LSC) joined the Balkan fleet two years earlier, and was withdrawn from use in 1997. It was broken up in 1999-2000.

Departing from Rwy 36L in front of the town of Vijfhuizen (Five Houses), which ought to be renamed Five Apartment Buildings.

Newly delivered on 27 July 2011.

The Spanish delegation seemed to be arriving rather late for today's Afghanistan conference in The Hague.

A brand new 737-800, delivered to Antalya on 29 May 2016.

DDA's second DC-3 making a low pass over runway 32 (now closed), at the end of its delivery flight from Malta, in the company of ill-fated sistership PH-DDA. It already carries the name "Doornroosje" just below the cockpit window (with "Sleeping Beauty" on the right side). This DC-3 would not fly again for 12 years due to a very thorough restoration. When it did, on 7 May 1999, the Pyramid Airlines colours in this photo (ex SU-BFY) had been replaced by a nice retro Martin's Air Charter livery. The aircraft was withdrawn from use in October 2012, and initially stored at Amsterdam-Schiphol. In September 2016 it was dismantled and transported by barge to the Aviodrome Museum at Lelystad.

Soc. Columbia was headquartered in Genoa, the birthplace of Christopher Columbus. This explains the airline's name, and the tail logo, which is a stylized representation of the Santa Maria, the ship on which Columbus set out to discover America. Columbia operated this Herald (ex G-BFRJ) from 1984 until its bankruptcy in August 1986. A year later it was sold to Channel Express as G-CEXP, and in March 1996 it was wfu and put up for display on the visitor's terrace at London-Gatwick. It was removed from there in 2003, and by 2014 is sat derelict in a remote corner near the fire training area.

Nostalgia on final for runway 01R… During the mid 1980s Hawaiian Air briefly operated a service into Amsterdam-Schiphol Airport. It was always flown by this aircraft, which was their only DC-8-63. It was leased only two months before this shot was made (ex Iberia/Aviaco EC-BQS), and operated for ten years, until sold to Airborne Express as N822AX in 1994 and converted to a freighter. By 2003 it had been withdrawn from use.

And I thought the covered airport was a joke. The new general aviation terminal.

Arriving on a flight from Minsk, approaching Rwy 18C.

First flown and delivered in May 2012.

Note the additional markings. Nefesh B'Nefesh is an organization stimulating immigration to Israel from North America. On the rear fuselage is a cartoon character flying a plane.
