A KLM Boeing 737-900, registration PH-BXO performing flight KL-1511 from Amsterdam (Netherlands) to Barcelona,SP (Spain), was climbing out of Amsterdam’s runway 24 when the crew stopped the climb at FL130 reporting they had smoke on board and needed to return to Amsterdam. While on approach to runway 27 the crew declared PAN PAN advising they now had smoke in the cockpit. The aircraft continued for a safe landing on runway 27 about 20 minutes after departure.

The rotation was cancelled.

The aircraft is still on the ground in Amsterdam about 31 hours after landing.
