A visitor from Netherlands posted Thu July 2, 2009: @ the visitor from the US. you're right, this isn't a real taxy way. The plane was just parked there, because the real taxy ways had to be open for planes entering in the shows. This plane was 'open' for spectators on the open days of the air force of the netherlands. I've actually talked to the US crew about this plane, they told me they're situated in England and took this plane on a two days 'trip' to the Netherlands to display her there! It was indeed great to see a stratotanker, I actually lay down in the tail of the plane, were you could actually 'feel' how it felt to be the soldier doing his job there!!
A visitor from Netherlands posted Sun June 28, 2009: Great one! I've been in that flight deck at the very same event! Great show wasn't it? Really a once in a lifetime oppurtunity to go in stratotanker!
A visitor from United States posted Sat June 27, 2009: I also think the windscreens are non-existent.
A visitor from United States posted Sat June 27, 2009: That taxiway doesn't look like it meets the minimum width requirement.
