Wakey, wakey....
Congratulations. The newbie spots something that the pros don't seem to have switched on to.
Is there anything unusual about a 747 on long final with its wheels down? No.
How many of them are directly over High Holborn at the time? Very few. None that I know of in the last few months - and I work in High Holborn most days :-(, unless I'm flying :-).
How many flights go into LHR every day? Yet this one follows a route that gets it noticed. There HAS to be a reason for that.
Like Herod says, give GonzoXL5 a break. Hippy, I know the geography, but it happens very rarely that a 747 uses the Central Line as a PAPI (especially given the Central Line's safety record) - so why today? Either you know the answer to this question - in which case shoot - or you don't. If you don't, pipe down and stop putting down a newcomer for being bloody observant. Onan, I'm with you on this one.
Anyone got an answer for Gonzo (as opposed to an opinion)?
