If the pic is real, then what's happening?
The elephant has always been in the same spot, at 51.33306N 0.77102W? If so, the DC-8 is just under a half-mile south of the approach course for Blackbushe runway 25. It's heading about 330 degrees true, so it needs to turn 75-80 degrees left to line up. Think they can manage that, at maybe 250 feet above the ground?
With flaps like that, the DC-8 is for sure landing -- right? No other airport it could be headed for?
