747 At EHGG

[Guest FlyMD11.nl]

Hello everybody, This might be of interest for all the 747 lovers out there...

It's a wave off of a KLM 747-400 at Groningen Airport Eelde in the north of Holland. This is the airport where most of the KLM pilots learn to fly at the KLM Flight Academy. Sometimes aircraft of KLM visit the place after a test flight on the way back to Schiphol. The runway at Eelde is not equipped to handle a 747 that's why it made a wave off.A pic from an earlier occasion when I was there...http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/168148.jpgAnd compared to the PMDG 747...http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/168149.jpgPretty impressive to be standing underneath one!Remcowww.inflightweekly.com

I actually glanced at the pictures before reading what you wrote, and thought the PMDG shot was real, and the real thing was in game.Thanks for posting.
