As a small aside . . . . When the two Corsair B747s arrived i took some photos of them landing from the tower and subsequently posted them on my (then) website. A few days later the airport alerted me to the fact that the anti-airport lot LADACAN (do they still exist?) had linked to them from their website with a headline 'Two Jumbos land at Luton Airport' and how terribly noisy they were. The airport asked me to take them down. I did better than that . . . .

I found a pic on the internet of two elephants and substituted that (with the same url) as the pic of the Corsair B747s. It was several days before LADACAN twigged. It did amuse me . . .
