I took these while spotting at Schiphol Airport a few weeks ago. Enjoy!

The Air Transat A330 looks like it had a brake lockup on the right main undercarriage. The KLM B747 did quite a good job.

I'd say its water on that side of the runway Grahame.

The Air Transat A330 looks like it had a brake lockup on the right main undercarriage. The KLM B747 did quite a good job.

Probably because of more lift on the upwind side of the jet and thus less downforce on the mains.

Definitely water.
