Boeing777 Crossing Road


This image appears in London Heathrow Airport, where it serves to illustrate some of the unique security concerns at LHR. It is also a very striking picture taken alone, and is of quite good quality. It is flagged as created and released into PD by User:Arpingstone. Its description page reads "An unusual road at London Heathrow Airport, England. A British Airways Boeing 777-200 is being towed across a public road on its way to the maintenance hangars. Photographed by Adrian Pingstone in April 2005 and released to the public domain."


 * Nominate and support. This picture is quite striking and illustrates a very unusual security concern at LHR. - Lanoitarus 17:01, 14 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Support It's different and interesting.-- Dak ota     t     e  ''' 01:51, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Support Can I support my own pic? if not, disregard this vote! - Adrian Pingstone 22:38, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Perhaps it's a devious conspiracy between you and Lanoitarus to get an extra vote ;) Enochlau 15:42, 16 November 2005 (UTC)
 * I didn't think anyone would find us out! What's your vote? - Adrian Pingstone 16:11, 16 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Support An interesting intersection (ha!) of two popular modes of transport.  I wonder if this can be at all symbolic of any David-Goliath dichotomy? :) E Pluribus Anthony 21:08, 17 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Oppose. I just don't think it's horribly striking; it's rather ordinary. Although the situation may be unusual, I had to read the description to find out that it was unusual... maybe I'm just stupid. Enochlau 02:28, 19 November 2005 (UTC)
 * ( − ) Oppose First impression: "Some cars on the road. I don't see anything striking or interesting in this." Second, after reading a caption: "Oh, so it is a plane, not a building". If the plane was more distinct, I'd support, but as it stands, it's just not striking enough. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 02:01, 23 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Oppose Its not immediatly striking. Only after Zooming in and looking at do I realise what is going on.--Ewok Slayer 07:35, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
 * ( − ) Oppose Agree with Ewok Slayer. --Fir0002 08:08, 27 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Looks too ordinary, even though the situation perhaps isn't. --Janke | Talk 13:41, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
