Earlier today I hosted the Polderbaan Fly-Out, an event focused on utilizing runway 36L at Amsterdam (EHAM) due to its low use in IF, but wind direction forced us to change plans and takeoff from runway 18C, but the event still was amazing! We were in the Expert Server at 21:00Z and we had IFATC at our event thanks to the schedule. This is the event thread.
-
Everybody parked at the gate
-
Another angle of parked planes
-
Some of us taxiing to runway 18R
-
Because of Schiphol’s taxiway network, two groups of taxiing planes were created, this is the other one
-
Both groups started to merge in a line to reach runway 18C together
-
That’s @DeltaFox, the first one to takeoff, and (in order) we were @N489DN, @Infinite2674 (me), @simopoint, @mitchjansen2005, @SunDown, @Jaimexerez2000, @Jukker, @Fat_Albert_512 and @FlyIf_0011IFPA (@Captain_T_Malone had to restart his app so he isn’t in the picture, but he was there)
-
The line emptying with just 5 planes left for takeoff
-
That’s my landing at Barcelona (LEBL), completing my event flight
