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


No, 27L is the landing runway, and the plane on it has just landed and
is turning right into one of the slip-roads or whatever they're called.


Taxiways?

So it is, I hadn't zoomed all the way in before and from a distance it looks
as though it has just lifted off.
