Ok if I was working at an airport it would be Schiphol.. and if I were to do anything specific it would be driving one of these cool lift tugs (or what ever thay are called)... looks like a futuristic racer here...with it's "salmon filet" rear LOL.

Never noticed these before. The LEOS/Goldhofer ones indeed look more traditional compared to this one.

Wow, this is a very cool-looking tug!

Thanks guys. I've only seen these at Schiphol but I'm sure they must be used at other global hubs around the world.

You're right, these things are awesome! I guess when you have such a large surface area to cover as Schiphol, you have to move planes fast.

midendian - They certainly have a lot to move around. Are you there now? Lovin' it? :-)

Yes! Just wrapped up a full day of spotting (twilight to twilight!). What an amazing airport. Really wish I could stay longer -- only get a half-day tomorrow morning then I'm back to SFO.
caribb (54 months ago | reply)
