If you look closely you will see that there are yellow straps attached between the main landing gear and the two fire trucks.

...and I thought that petera380's photo was revealing just why she had to go to such a remote area (well is anywhere remote nowadays?) to fix the copy modified B747 tail fins on to take the European Space Shuttle of the future.
