Title: KLM F70 final formation flight
Post by: smudge on October 24, 2017, 10:32:48 AM

KLM revenue services with the F70 end on 28 October and on the 29th they will fly the seven remaining airframes from Amsterdam to Norwich in formation. 

I don't have any timings yet but will dig around

Couple of F70s PH-KZI / KZM inbound to Norwich now ( 20:20 ).  PH-KZU gone elsewhere.  Sunday's Farewell Formation will be four aircraft as a result.



Meanwhile, KLM's Fokker Tribute statue:
