Forum rules
ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

Hi,

Today i saw this nice watersalut from the Airport Fire Brigade Schiphol at F-6.
I was busy with the PH-BFG KL871 at F-4 when i saw the fire trucks positioning to bring a watersalut to the First officer from the PH-BQD.

Below you can find a compilation from the watersalut taken from the PH-BFG rear side.

Retiring the First Officer. ( in Dutch: met pensioen)
It was the last flight from the Captain from this T7.

The crew (cabin) do a request by the KLM and AAS (Amsterdam Airport Schiphol) to salut the captain when he arrived at Schiphol.
Captain get flowers and a piece of pie in the gate.

Grt,

So, he was a captain but had to sit in the right seat? That's not the way I would choose to retire! :wink:

I would at least ask for a fly-by and make the landing myself! 8)
