When I was a kid, my brother used to fly model airplanes here (Leigh-on-Sea in Essex), and I've found what looks very much like a model airplane crashed on the ground. Also, go due south of the plane, and you'll see a man who looks like he's either flying a plane, or trying to find the one that crashed

That is a really cool find!
Someone brought this post up in the Transportation forum so i had to see it.
Perfect shadow on the guy controlling it too. You can even tell hes holding the remote.
I agree with what they say on trans forum, this isnt crashed its in flight. :
