I had BigJet TV on in the background at work today (Runway 27L landings at London Heathrow). Very entertaining

Back in 2019 I was headed back stateside from India via EHAM on a KLM 777-200ER.  The forecast was very similar with strong winds gusting north of 40 knots out of the SW.  We ended up landing on Rwy 22, the Oostbaan, which clocks in at a whopping 6,600 ft / 2,000m.  With that arrival, I have landed or taken off on every runway at Schiphol.

Could be some fun weather to try putting the heavies down on the Oostbaan from the front seat in P3D, instead of just along for the real-life ride...

I was on shift yesterday.  What a mess, and believe it or not the airlines are short staffed, loads of spare aircraft to recover lines of flying, no crew.  Half term innit.
