Narrative:

Location: runway 25R, takeoff. WX for takeoff was 003 broken, visibility 5000 meters, light drizzle. All crewmembers understood our flight being cleared into position for takeoff on runway 25R at eddf. An inbound aircraft was apparently cleared for an approach to runway 25R and made a low approach because our aircraft was in position for takeoff. After the other aircraft completed a low approach, we were cleared for takeoff. Supplemental information from acn 600173: aircraft on approach made a go around over us in low visibility.
