It looks like a plane coming in for landing! Most interesting is that the photos from Italy taken in the same time period show the same slant to the wings. The wings are a flare caused by the Occulted Sun, shown here as a fat pearshaped Sun. The ancients depicted a pendulum effect for the tail feathers in the presentation of a Winged Globe, the pendulous tail being other personas.
