Another Schiphol visit... 22/7/2012

[Ferry_vO]

My sister, brother-in-law and myself drove to Schiphol (EHAM) last Sunday to take a 'behind the scenes' tour (Not the best photos since we weren't allowed to get off the bus.); afterwards we went to the 'panorama terrace' (If you're ever in the neighbourhood, just follow the signs, worth a visit!) which overlooks about half the field:

Chinese A330 amidst lots of Dutch KLM and Transavia traffic:

Found a good spot along one of the taxiways, but we were quickly chased away by a cop:

Lots of heat haze, but still an impressive shot of this Cathay 747 Cargo coming in to land:

Looks like Cathay got the Alpha just right on that 747 :)

Yeah, nice realistic reflections too. Not a bad framerate either! :d
