Why is everyone around here so quick to accuse shots on www.airliners.net as being fakes?  I mean I'm sure they get a few fakes every now and then, but I mean it almost seems like every shot posted here that is featured on that site is a fake.

I've asked the same question. My point is, if they're that easy to detect, what motive would a serious photographer have for posting an obvious fake? ???

Mind you, I didn't like to say anything before it was mentioned but this particular one does look a little odd to me. Roll Eyes Wink

Let me jump in....  It is possible that the airflow from the wings causes the waves to look that way.  The number 2 engine is not being disrupted by the wings.

Interesting shot that bring a forum together to discuss it.  Just when you thought you had better things to do.  This group is fantastic.... Grin
