I want a "like" button so bad right now. That's an amazing set of photos and reflections, thanks so much for that
rog747.
The neatest solution to this would be that the picture is of a trailing edge of a 727 wing. It seems possible that you could get a shot from one of the rear rows with the tip showing on a 727-47, and avoiding the engine. But against that there is no static dispersion (though maybe not enough resolution in the photo to see that). If it's the leading edge, the aircraft is flying south, and that's difficult to fit with the sequence of the slides. I am going to go back and double check the slide matrix numbers, but as I understand the approach it tended to make landfall from the west over Lake Korrission and then turned left either to land on 35 in a northerly direction directly, or up to the north and turned round for 17 as was certainly the case for this landing.
What would be very informative now would be to find out what the standard approaches to Corfu were.
