Amsterdam Schiphol saw heavy departures, crosswind landings and uncommon aircraft movements on September 28, 2025.
Amsterdam Schiphol (EHAM) on September 28, 2025 recorded a busy mix of operations from Kaagbaan 06/24: heavy departures, notable crosswind landings and a handful of rare aircraft movements that kept spotters and operations teams alert.
Schiphol remains one of Europe’s busiest hubs, and the day highlighted how the airport balances high traffic with safety and efficiency. Runway Kaagbaan (06/24) featured heavily in the flow, with arrivals and departures adapting to changing conditions while commercial schedules continued to move.
Crosswind landings were visible throughout the day, a routine challenge for pilots and controllers but notable for onlookers because of the pronounced angles and careful runway selection. Airport teams worked to keep departures on time while maintaining standard crosswind procedures and safety buffers.
Spotters reported several rare aircraft movements alongside the steady commercial rotations; while exact aircraft types and flight numbers were not logged in this report, the mix demonstrated Schiphol’s operational flexibility. Ground handling, air traffic control and tower coordination played key roles in sequencing heavy departures without major disruption.
Overall, September 28’s activity at Amsterdam Schiphol showed how a major European hub handles a dense operational day: balancing safety, punctuality and the occasional unexpected movement. Follow for continued monitoring of runway use, operational notes and traffic patterns at EHAM.
