Don't think that it'a a B707....not with those pods under the wing tips.... early EC135?

Is that not Prague Airport?

Definitely a 707 - the pods under the wingtips are aerial refueling pods. The Italian Air Force do have them.

Which Jersey Airport is that, I wonder?

Surely not the rather short runway on a Channel Island, where, from what I recall of the performance charts, it would be an act of supreme courage to land a B707 or any variant thereof, let alone get it off again.....

One of the buildings in the background is marked CSA Cargo - other buildings prove this is not Jersey

The caption under the video screen clearly indicates that it is a video of an Italian Air Force 707 landing at Prague.

rog747:
What's so special about this landing? It's just another 707 arrival. Its happened millions of times over the last 50 years, although not so often recently.
