Well, if you look at the page you can clearly see that it's a hoax, as there's a banner saying "DAILY EXPRESS".. The Express is like the Daily Mail; "Bad weather coming, how it can give you cancer and affect house prices."

And since they don't name them, doubtless the "experts" are of the Saloon Bar variety....

And encourage paedophiles. Don't forget the paedophiles.

Yeah, always parking their 4x4s outside schools!

AND bad weather killed Princess Diana. It was caused by the weather sputniks that "they" keep sending up.

that's brilliant. I bet it's in australia somewhere.

Not sure, but on their main page there's a good series of pictures showing the scales of the various planets. I think the pictures may change to different ones every day so get them while they're hot.

a quick check of google earth shows that although these look to be photoshopped (shadows or lack of them gives it away) it is certainly within the realms of possibility

A few people have added photos, one of which is from an aircraft coming into land, and it does look close!!

Couple of feet lower and the disco would've had skid marks on its roof!

Probably not - we don't have tornadoes, we have cyclones ...

Seen similar from same location before, and believe them to be genuine. Type sxm into google images, lots more there.

Mind you, a hercy at maximum thrust, minimum weight and possibly full flaps might succeed in jumping itself out of a spot like that. They don't actually do VTOL, but unladen and with minimum fuel they're not exactly short of lift.

I doubt they'd have any lift at all when stationary, the wings need airflow, but with enough thrust it'd surely ride up the lip of the trench, or tear the wheel off ;-)
