Looks like runway number 08 and he's going the wrong way, no?
Hi Moira, This is definitely runway number 80, runway number 08 goes the other way

The threshold number is actually reversed because the RAF like to fly so fast they only get to see the threshold number in their rear view mirrors. Once they have seen it they then go around and land. It goes back to when if you missed tea break then tough, "late, no break"

No, no, subtract 20 and add 2, makes the other end runway 62.

80 and 08 are the same direction! It's magic!
