Russian news reports say the hatch of a cargo plane carrying precious metals accidentally flew open upon takeoff — scattering at least 3 tons of gold on the runway.
An investigation is underway after the incident Thursday at the airport in the far east city of Yakutsk, according to the Tass news agency.

How interesting. Good find. We don’t have enough data yet (at least I don’t) to see the full pattern, but it seems to me that this is definitely a pixel. If we get enough of those, maybe we can get some pictures emerging.
Okay, I went back to the original (maybe, but I'm still poking at that branch in the rabbit hole) which has a few more details plus pictures.

One OT comment after checking the pictures...any of the Old School Chiefs I worked with saw an aircraft looked like that Russki AN-12 on their ramp, somebody would think that it had just clouded up and rained sh**.
