Het enige wat de KMAR zou "kunnen" doen is je staande houden en een bon geven... áls ze dat al mogen doen, daaro...

Ik zet me wiel in de richting van de weg.. voor mij reed nog een auto heel rustig op dat weggetje dus ik dat Je kan me wat met dat bord dus ik draai de weg op en opeens zet de gast met z'n arm uit het raam zo een blauwe zwaailamp op het dak :oops: :evilbat: Nouja vandaag rijden we dan wel eventjes om... :oops:

Nou Delta12,

Schrijver dezes reed vóór "Nine-Eleven" en de hele santekraam daarna wel vaker "in de verboden richting" noordwaarts, maar nu de KMar steeds vaker een rondje doet over de wegen rond de luchthaven... :(

Overigens mag de Marechaussee je daar wel degelijk een bon geven... :2gunfire:
En ja, de "jongens in blauw" zien zelf het probleem niet in het rijden op de Oude Meerweg in noordelijke richting als het hen goed uitkomt. :evil: Heeft niks te maken met "noodgevallen" of zo...

Today I made a quick visit to the "Spottersplek" along the Kaagbaan runway 06-24.

It is possible again to drive your car from the N201 "mayor road" along the Aalsmeerderweg (and Kaagbaan 06-24 runway) via the Oude Meerweg and the S-apron to Truckland without having to use the "new road" which is "heavy haulage only".

Now even the concrete tubes/pipes ("betonbuizen") have been shoved aside so large lorries/trucks have no problem using the Oude Meerweg.
Of course it is still "one-way traffic only"!

This also means that the "Spottersplek" can still be reached by car.

Exit "Hoofddorp" on the A4 motorway Leiden towards Amsterdam is temporarily closed though, so some non-locals may still have problems reaching the Spottersplek.

Except for the KMar ?? Last friday they passed me there in opposite (wrong) direction. It wasn't an emergency ride, no blue flashlights and/or sirens, so illegal ! Give 'em a uniform and a striped car and they think they can trespass every traffic rule......

SCHIPHOL - Een van de meest populaire plekken voor vliegtuigspotters blijft nog even open. Aanvankelijk zou de locatie langs de Kaagbaan van Schiphol in september dichtgaan, maar liefhebbers kunnen er voorlopig nog gewoon naar vliegtuigen komen kijken. Dat liet een woordvoerster van de luchthaven donderdag weten.

Schiphol wil de plek sluiten om een nabijgelegen bedrijventerrein uit te breiden. De spotters zouden een nieuwe, tijdelijke kijkpost krijgen langs de Polderbaan. Die is inmiddels klaar, maar mag nog niet opengaan.

Omwonenden hebben namelijk bezwaar gemaakt bij de gemeente Haarlemmermeer. Zij stellen dat de vliegtuigfans voor onder meer verkeersoverlast zorgen.

Zolang de bezwaarprocedure duurt, mag de nieuwe locatie niet worden gebruikt. Als de gemeente de omwonenden ongelijk geeft, kunnen zij nog naar de rechter stappen. Zo'n procedure kan maanden duren.

Honderden mensen

De spottersplek langs de Kaagbaan is een van de meest populaire van Nederland. In het weekeinde komen er honderden mensen naar vliegtuigen kijken. Toen Schiphol bekendmaakte dat de kijkpost gaat sluiten, stuitte dat op fel verzet van spotters. Zij hielden onder meer een handtekeningenactie.

De nieuwe plek langs de Polderbaan is een tijdelijke. Uiteindelijk moeten de vliegtuigfanaten elders een definitieve stek krijgen.

Actually, they can. Even without uniform or stripes, if they act within their directives.

Sorry for my poor understanding of Dutch, but is the 06-24 spotters place staying open for good, or is it just being closed later than originally thought?

Cheers,
Richard

A spokeswoman of Amsterdam Airport has stated that the latter is the case. So it is only a "stay of execution"... :(

Locals around the "new" temperorary spotters place have lodged legal complaints with the local council of Haarlemmermeer against this "new" place.
Work at the "new" place has now finished but if the inhabitants of Haarlemmermeer directly in the vicinity launch legal proceedings against opening this place it could take months :!: before this new venue is allowed to open.
In the end spotters and daytrippers (yes, we are being treated equally...) will get new facilities. The precise location(s) still has/have to be determined.
Nice to see that Schiphol authorities have seen reason and will not close down the "old spot" until the "new one" is allowed to open! :D

Even so many people will lament the passing of yet another good photo vantage point... :(

There is a cemetary a walking distance away just over the bridge. I suggest you park there. Don't think the deceased will complain quite as much as the NIMBYs.

What I do not understand is that Schiphol has made the new place a temporary spot. I was under the impression this would be definitive. Must admit the place did look a bit small compared to the Kaagbaan spot, as well as a tad further away from the runway.
