Remarks: Same track ‘overlaps’ are rarely seen in radar controlled airspace. On this occasion the lower and faster Air France 747 is rapidly overhauling the Continental 767, so the radar returns would not have merged for long on the controller’s screen.
Remarks: Photo taken from my office at the time, what a nice view! A DAS Air Cargo DC-10-30 fullfreighter just started its taxy to the runway after pushback.
