Nice indeed but could it be that again, again and again the VDGS didn't pick up properly the incoming because of its dark colour?Passenger wrote:Talking about Amsterdam Airport...
This very nice HiFly A340 did positioning flight AB107P from Berlin TXL to AMS this afternoon. Safe landing, but engine n°2 has hit an aviobridge during taxiing at Amsterdam. There is some damage to the cowling, and outgoing OR-341 is now delayed from 16h45 till 08h00.

What I don't get is that "normally" if the docking guidance system does not obtain a proper image it displays an error message so that the pilot stops short and a marshaller is called in to guide into the stand.
