Last Flight of Captain Ryan Oudshoorn @ KLM

Captain Ryan Oudshoorn made his last flight due to retirement at KLM.

Final destination was Curacao and back homebase Amsterdam.

Joining this flight was Thijs van Tol, son in law, and Thijs’s father Rene van Tol is a retired KLM Captain for 6 years now.

What a special moment to have joined your father’s last flight and also the father in law.

Captain Ryan got assisted by first officer Tim Jack as his ‘Wingman’ ánd his daughter Rosalie as second officer and his beloved ‘Wingwoman’.

By surprise of Thijs , I ,Bokito, came around the corner with my huge pushbacktruck to operate his final pushback on Amsterdam Airport.

Stand Echo-3 with a push & pull into Alpha-16. Flight KL733 got operated with a B777-200 reg PHBQD and a RWY24 departure.

Backflight KL734 got a slight delay because of the worldwide issue of the friday.
