Lone DC3 on approach to AMS

Good afternoon all,
I flew into AMS yesterday for a day spotting Fri Dublin, and whilst on approach I noticed a green DC3. It looked like it was in the middle of an industrial area. It was approx 4/5 mins from landing.
Any help would be gratefully received.

Which runway and what flight were you on?

You probably flew over the former NAS Valkenburg and saw the DC-3 that is in use at a local theatre. It is G-AMCA (c/n 32966) which is painted in RAF c/s with serial KN487 and is coded NQ - I
