Madrid Barajas from IB3163 (LHR-MAD/EC-ILP) heading south-west and 24 minutes from landing on runway 33L (see 5899242 ... Click Here). There's an Iberia A321 leaving this runway on the second exit and some of the 11 aircraft taxiing from here up to the 36L threshold can be seen at this resolution, along with an Iberia A320 rotating at around 36L's mid point. Thanks to John Bradon for pointing out that Torrejon AFB is also visible, top left (62mm, F8 @ 1/640)

Fantastic picture for the 2 airports Barajas & Torrejón. Not easy take a picture like this because Barajas mesure about 10 km long for 4 km wide. Your pic is better than google earth for find the spotting sites !
Great shot! You can also see, on the top left, Torrejon AB, where I spent 21 years of my life. Now an entirely Spanish installation, it once was home to 72 F-16s from the 401st TFW, 16th AF, USAFE. During Desert Shield, the base was visited by many C-5s and C-141s. It almost felt like being in Dover AFB!
