Stairs up for the Skyteam Lounge where a young and nice carribean style woman provided us with the necessary papers


And where you have marvellous views to the sunny apron
and for example like this


Just for the case that this one is parked what feels like one meter in front of the lounge window where we spend some time now


FlySunwing, no thanx, we should do the MD11 tonight!


Yes, this is it, perfectly like on schedule.
"Maria Montessori" or PH-KCB, leg no. 2 on the MD11 and new to the log


In the air with KL since 01.03.1994, four active examples are in the fleet and there are no incidents to show


Some Rouge on the go


Should we really go for boarding from gate A55 right now?.
Well, yes we should, 7.10 pm, short ahead to schedule, 6.10 hours only by "KLM" from the "Aéroport international Pierre-Elliott-Trudeau de Montréal"



Hey, this is no MD1!


Well loaded it is tonight. Lucky us with the last row two seater, 39AB, well worth the 15 Euro´s extra per seat.
We are very close to 100% with VFR travellers on the way.
Mixed blue fabrics, oldfashioned and well used, but also clean so far and a well temperatured cabin


Legroom is good here


Seat and cabin details


Cockpit crew is from the Netherlands. The captain with a nice welcome after boarding in an experienced style.
Routing is via Quebec, Belfast, Leeds at 35000 and later 37000 feet.
Just departed from the 2926 meters "Two-Four-Left" with 22 sunny degrees


And the last sunrays on the cute winglet


Ok, there is also some entertainment to follow


This one for me please!


Cabin crew serving our seats is one younger European female FA. From the Netherlands like we talked later. Brown hair, not that large, nice.
Retro, isn´t it?


Ready for something to eat?


Just for the variety


Catching some sleep on the way, well, some sleep till breakfast!


Not that far from the "Amsterdam Airport Schiphol
Luchthaven Schiphol" and the captain is on the mike with a  really nice good morning.
"Welcome to this small but beautiful country", well done


And reached mainland Europe again, after two or three flights abroad!.
The 3300 meters runway "Three-Six-Center" is prepared for us at 7.45 am, short ahead to schedule with 16 degrees and fog


Ok, it´s really a MD11 and not a MD1!


Bye now and there should one more lounge to come



And there is still one more leg to go!.
Bye now.
