As well as a moving Concorde it would seem


What makes you think it's moving?


I was going to ask that, there are two stationary ones south of terminal 4.

Ah, found it, there's one just off runway 23 at the north end. Seems an odd
place to be, given it is not on the runway iteself but on the 'hard
shoulder'. 27R appears to be the landing runway, given there's an aircraft
taking off from 27L. On the other hand there appears to be a queue of 5
aircraft in two lines heading for 27R
