Remarks: After spending an afternoon on the beatiful beaches of Curaçao island, I fortunately managed to arrive at "el mirador" before the departure of Queen of The Skies.
Remarks: KL 869 arriving FUK just after 8:00 in the morning. Fukuoka is KLM's third destination in Japan, after Tokyo and Osaka. The inaugural flight for this three times a week direct service from Schiphol took place just over a month ago, on April 5th 2013.
Remarks: Amsterdam's seemingly ever-present gray skies and rain (but not the wind) have temporarily abated as Iquazu Falls is just about to touch down on the Polderbaan (18R) at Schiphol. What a great day of spotting with fellow JP screeners Simon de Rudder, Pamela de Boer, Roel Kroes, and Erwin Stam!
