Re: A Tribute to N747PA Juan T Trippe

I thought the first 747 was the Pan am that collided with the KLM 747 at tenerife in 1977, named the 'clipper victor'. am i mistaking in this?!? Felipe, that was the 11th 747 coming off the assembly line. N747PA was #2 and the first production aircraft. I believe that assembly line numbers and deli...

DC-10 CP Air, Canadian Pacific and Canadian Airlines

The CP Air thread in the Praethuis forum made me dig out my scan collection of those beautiful orange/metal DC-10's. Over the years they visited Schiphol in a variety of schemes and company names. From CP Air via Canadian Pacific to Canadian Airlines. Here are some pics of those orange babies. Class...

Re: Vanaf wanneer vloog CP Air met DC-10's op Schiphol??

De eerste CP Air DC-10 zag ik in 1982 toen ik begon met spotten.De laatste klassieke CP Air fotografeerde ik in juli 1986 (één van de drie gehuurde United kisten). Echter al vanaf begin 1986 werden de CP Air titels beetje bij beetje vervangen door de tijdelijk nieuwe naam Canadian Pacific. De Franse...

Re: REQ: Spotting at Toulouse (TLS)

I was there about 6 months ago and spend some time under the appoach of 32L and 32R (spot 4 of the Scramble map). Parking can be done quite easy, opposite a little restaurant at 32L. No ladders are necessary for both runways. Can't tell you much about the other spots since I did not go there. Have f...

Re: Identity of F-84F at Savigny les Beaune

Me too photographed this frame at Beaune last year. I must admit that I noticed the serial only after reading your remark above. Since this aircraft is cut in two halves perhaps the other half belongs to FU-21?

The Air Asia slogan: ''anyone can fly'' is fit for an update: ''but not anyone can land''.

Re: Fokker 50 prototype scans

The prototype was basically built from a standard F-27 fuselage and thus was configured with the oval windows; well at least on the right side. Before I could finish my message some other Erwin came with a very good answer already :D All I wanted to say is that the Fokker 50 style Windows were on t...

Fokker 50 prototype scans

Today I was scanning my F-27 and Fokker 50 slides. I hadn't seen them for many years and after scanning the Fokker 50 prototype PH-OSO I noticed some differences I had not seen before (or maybe I had but I had forgotten about it). The prototype was basically built from a standard F-27 fuselage and t...

Re: Old Dutch logo trains

@Arjan. I didn't know that about the dot. Thanks for the info.
@Thijs. You could be right about Amersfoort. I can't remember. Show me any aircraft pic from my 6000 slides collection and I'll tell you where it was made. However with the <10 train slides I have, my memory eludes me.

Als het maar niet betekent dat ze, na aanleg, het spotten op andere plekken gaan verbieden.
