Viewable right now on
www.mahobeachcam.com KLM Airbus A330. It landed from AMS at about 2:00 today. Not sure what was onboard, passengers or cargo (or both).
Regardless, this is good, very good news for those of us who love the island.

I presume it was one of the repatriation flights. I agree though, it is good to see any flights coming in.

It's a scheduled repatriation flight. May bring in some cargo, but taking people OFF the island, not on. Watched the Air France repat flight yesterday take off the wrong way while we were swimming in Simpson Bay. Amerijet comes every Tuesday and Friday. We call it the mail plane. Guess why? The schedule of these flights has been posted here a couple of times I think.

Ah .... OK. Thanks for the update. I stumbled across the info on Twitter. As an AvGeek, I follow a lot of aviation Tweeters. Looks like the flight is scheduled to depart very soon, according to KLM website. So if you want to watch the live take-off, check out mahobeachcam.com
