In mid-June 2007 I flew a few times into & out of Cairo, and I asked the air traffic controllers there to radar vector us over the pyramids. They did a great job of that and with the plane banked over the huge monuments were right under us as we turned to line-up with the runway.
Yes, I knew they were big, but not that big!
The other surprise is that they're pretty much surrounded by Cairo city. I'd always thought they were out of town some distance.
