Boeing 747400 view from Space!

[bigflesh2005]

Having trawled Multimap for the best route to my Aunt Megs house, I accidently stumbled across this fantastic shot of a B747400 over southern england!

Can anyone hazard a guess as to altitude and origin/destination? My first assumption would be outbound Heathrow or Gatwick.

It's actually a restaurant on the ground, with a bouncy castle in it for off duty crews who are homesick to get back in the air!

Use '+' to zoom, 'Satellite' to get image. Hold mouse click to drag image around.


Strange double imaging on both.

Have fun...

If you go by the lat and long, than you come to a location close to the A3 near by Milford, which is situated about 6 miles sout west of Guildford and 18 miles west of Gatwick. So I my guess would be that the a/c is outbound from Gatwick. And if the a/c was on a standard departure (SAM 2M), a/c's altitude would probably be around 4000/5000' depending on the climb clearance.

Check out the big brain on kooyheier!

Or you could zoom out and the box tells you it's 20 miles from gatwick between the A3 and the A286! Lat and Long indeed!
