Photo Comment

One of the first visits of a Boeing 777 for Eelde, with quite a few to follow. KLM performed their maintenance program at Amsterdam and part of this was a post-maintenance checkflight to tick off various items. One of these items is an approach and alternate gear extension (note the open gear doors). They were always very welcome guest at Eelde. As time progressed, the approach became lower and lower, with some actual touch & go's as a result.
