Was that in the days when there was a GA Light aircraft park along a side taxiway

Luton for airlines is fairly short at best of times but for a piston single massive and the pilots will bang it on the numbers and go for full reverse thrust.

Was that such a Jet with the tailwind or a light single aircraft? If a light single aircraft then there are some pretty bad pilots around who shouldn't be flying if they cannot land with 5 KTS especially for a light single and a huge runway like Luton?
