I know it may be a bit sad but if you look closely at Heathrow airport on google earth then you can see the same plane landing in different positions. Its a bit like time lapse photography. Please let me know if I need to get a life:D

Can't see the problem myself. Just about to watch the matrix reloaded for the 4th time - glass houses - stones.

I must admit to enjoying airport searching on google earth, and have also noticed the "timelapse" plane landing at LHR.
This is just a healthy interest..... It's the people who found the lone F-14(?) somewhere over the atlantic east of NY that need to get out and breath fresh air a little more often!

Check out Wikimapia.

It's basically google earth but as a wiki so you can mark your own places and reference them really easily.

P.S. This is link to the original two plane situation.

For all those would be virtual plane spotters. most of London - including LHR has been updated in Google Maps.

Check out T5. No more multiple planes landing though and gone are most of the concordes.
