Looks more logical to me..

With the green line the possible departure routes for the aircraft as the red line is closed because of construction works. And the yellow dotted lines the crossing when no traffic.

Let's hope the paid acces is well spend...

My vote is absolutely with you Kier but unfortunately last week several locally based F-16s were seen taxing from the shelter areas south of your red line using the beginning of RWY26L as taxiway. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iQYnoChdz0w

Hello everybody,

I am going to the spottersday as well, now i have a question: I live near Rotterdam, and maybe others do as well, so maybe we can carpool?
So if you are interested, let me know!

Hi Kier,

I like your image!
Is that your wish only, or is it true like it will be?

The organisation send out a PDF-document on June 7th with all the details, so perhaps you should check your mailbox.

Thanks for your quick answer.

Of course I already checked my e-mail (and spam folder).
Today I've sent another message to the organisers. Hopefully they will react soon.

Is somebody willing to share the PDF-file with the details (maybe by PM)?
I'll try to get in anyway :oops:

Many thanks in advance.
