Nice picture and classic airliner.

Back in the day when they were common at LHR I recall one turning over north of Reading for approach to probably 10L. I lived about 21 miles from the threshold of 10L yet this Tarom IL62 already had its undercarriage down, engines whining and leaving a nice sooty track in its path.
