Re: Is this disconcerting?
Nothing wrong with that, it's just the angle the pic was taken from.
Probably taken just at the start of the runway. |

Re: Is this disconcerting?
The lamp post is not that close to the aircraft.
In fact I think this pic was taken at the junction of the Al-Wakra road and the road that leads to the Marriot hotel. It's right at the start of the runway, driven past it many times. |

Al-Wakra is the small town you go through on the way from Doha to Messiaeed.
Um-Said = Messiaeed, it's one and the same place. |

And when was the last time you could get that close to a landing aircraft?
Skip to 29 seconds Or taking off... also known as surfing the fence. |

Dammit. I've just gone on a youtube trail ending up with the first Space Shuttle launch in April 1981...:thumbup:

Oh, you bastard! I remember watching that on TV! It was somewhere about lunchtime GMT. Umm, come to think of it, what I remember is it landing.
Top of my bucket list is going to Cape Canaveral. |

I watched it at my Uncle's house in South Humberside (as it was known then). I was completely awestruck.
