Bizarre aircraft at egkk
Just a quick one. On flying out of Gatwick the other day off runway 08, I noticed parhed on the edge of the airfield just past the threshold, a very sorry looking grey aircraft. It looked like a 747SP until you got to the tail and it had a dirty great engine thru it like a DC-10. Could anyone shed any light on to what the aircraft is and what its doing there?
P.S I'm not a spotter, just curious as I've never seen anything like it!

The "lovely green one" was once an inbound from Basrah until Jerricho got his vectoring a bit out and landed it betweeen the hangars.
Still, it gave the firemen something to practise on.
