Ok I live in Los Gatos the foothills of the Santa Cruz Mountains, our house stands on the very top of a Hill and it is true that planes often fly pass our hill. I believe I saw that very same plane flying above our neighbour's house low enough for me to see the landing gear. Optical illusion my foot....i stongly advise that FAA takes disciplinary action against that pilot for I simply cannot imagine the devastation that plane could cause if it was flying any lower...
