I hope you got to do some spotting on the Polderbaan! Fantastic video. It makes me jealous since I probably will never fly on an MD-11 in my life. Same with the DC-10s.

Sadly, I only had a 2 hour layover in AMS and not enough time to go spotting. I hear spotting at AMS is a great experience.

The takeoff pitch was always something that amazed me about the MD-11. I have watched a few KLM MD-11 departures out of LAX and the climb-out looks very similar to a MD-80 or DC-9.

First time was FRA-ATL back in '93 when DL had a hub at FRA; I sat right on the leading edge of the starboard wing and I remember getting mesmerized by that huge GE CF6 and the winglet out the window. My first time flying in a winglet-equipped aircraft too. The second time was much more recently in 2002, BOM-CDG. This in N806DE, which now flies with UPS. I remember that one well since my mom and I got a free upgrade to Business Elite. To say it was a treat for me would be an understatement. Glad you got to fly in this awesome aircraft too!

Oh! haha You just showed the destination screen. How awesome is that?? Hope you are having, or had a great time! That was a long flight. But real nice plane. And that shot of the moon is incredible!! And as always, great shots of the plane and the surrounding area. ooh BRR. It looks cold coming in for a landing..... KLUNK!! We're heeeeere!!!

vegasjill21 That 'thing' in the middle of the wing is part of the aileron system on the md-11. It moves as the pilots tell it to. It's purpose is to bank the plane left or right, depending on where the pilots want to turn.

Starting Oct/Nov 2014 , KLM will replace the MD-11 on this route with an A330-300. Sad to see the MD-11 go as it was the only MD-11 passenger service we had.

I was checking this route as of April via some Kayak searches and I cannot find the MD-11 anymore. It looks like KLM is using the 744 for the non-stop SFO-AMS route currently. I was still able to find the MD-11 operating out of Montreal.

Yes the 747-400 is KLM's peak season aircraft to SFO and should be around until October. It looks like KLM is down to just several MD-11's left in the fleet until they are all gone by fall season.
