ALM (Antilliaanse Luchstvaart Maatschappij NV). ALM started operations in 1964 replacing the KLM West Indies operations. First flights were made using Convair 340's. In 1971 DC-9's were introduced, and since 1982 began using MD-82's. Now ALM Virtual is open for all Flight Simulator pilots, offering the opportunity to join a great team simulating all real world operations of the real ALM.
