N749NL (cn 749-2604) Almost at her new home after the long ferry from Arizona, taking a rest next to a freighter probably big enough to swallow up a Connie |

PH-XIV (cn 6289) Great to see this rare bird. There are only three still in existence including this one. In fact, only 21 were ever built. |

N749NL (cn 749-2604) Dear Connie: I am so appreciated to see your recent photographs coming from the Aviodrome Museum, Lelystad where your final resting place with many wonderful aircrafts and people. I do believe that you clearly remember the beautiful Arizona blue sky, awesome sunset from that place, and tremendous efforts from the volunteers who want you to be back in the air. We cannot live alone. That is why our life is so wonderful. Please take care of yourself, and hope to see you there soon. Best wishes from Jean. |

N749NL (cn 749-2604) "Het Blauwe Gevoel" - Transitionary titles on this Connie during her ferry flight from the states back to the Netherlands. Only days after she was repainted into the old KLM scheme. Also take a closer look at the bumped fuselage, you can see that it has been formed by hand, great craftsmanship here! |

N749NL (cn 749-2604) This is a historic picture. After 50 years of absence, finally a Constellation is at AMS again. She came in from Lelystad Airport, where she arrived after a long trip from the states. She made an overpass across 27-09, turned to line up with 19R-01L, circled around the tower twice before landing on the Schiphol-Oost baan. Racing over taxiways in airside vehicles is cool..:) |

N749NL (cn 749-2604) The historical arrival of a Connie at AMS. Flags suddenly popped out of the cockpit when taxiing to her stand. This is the most beautifull aircraft I have ever seen! Andy, you've got me convinced. Real airliners have 4 piston engines! |
