Great (variated!) shots.
It seems you guys had a marvelous day. Especially the SkyEurope must have been one of the highlights!

Actually, my hightlight of the day was the Continental 757 with Winglets.
I really think the 757 looks stunning with its new winglets !
A nice pic of the CO 757 can be found on page 2 of the report.

Nice pictures!
I will probably go to AMS this saturday. Any suggestions about the best places for spotting? Please note that I'm a bit too young to have a car.

Then how will you go ?
If you are using public transport, like the train, then I think the best spot you can go is the observationdeck at the airport.

You can go spotting at the Kaagbaan 06-24 with public transport.
From the Plaza at Schiphol (the place when you go out of the train station), take the bus line 191 (leaving at xx.10 , xx.40 ), or 198, 193. Go out at the Aalsmeerderweg stop. Then go to the left (in the bus driving direction). Walk about 10-15 minutes on that little road and you will get to the parking where you can make nice shots of the planes. Be careful this spot is not optimal after 15h due to the sun.
The observation deck is also a good option when you are by foot. It doesn't take a lot of time and you see a nice variety of planes.

Wow, I really enjoyed looking at those shots! Some really nice aircraft there. I wish I could go to Ams for a day, but of course my dad wouldn't want that.
