Sidelined Speedbird
This is BA273 from London, just after landing in San Diego. It sat here on Spot 1 for an hour because its arrival gate was occupied by ANOTHER 747. For whatever reason, the first jet was unable to take off for its regular departure and spent the night in San Diego. It was supposed to take off before its stablemate landed, but there was some confusion over the flight plan, so for a short while San Diego had 2 747s on the ramps at once.
