Obvious shoop is obvious.

If everyone will direct their attention the the forward left fusealge of the American Airlines 777 in the very first pic, they will notice the non-burning left nacelle being reflected. In addition, the left nacelle's reflection shows that the aircraft was not rotating when the pic was taken, it was level and on the ground.

The rest of the shots are cool though. Thanks for posting them.:applause:

50/50 ... the fire is obviously faked but the wingtips are flexed upward indicating ( esp. on the 777) that the wings are generating significant lift.

Now, AAL did have it's share, including BBQed airplanes.. this fire is not faked:

and the story is quite interesting.

BTW, the Ronco Slice & Dice on the Aussie Seminole was another of those really classic OOPSies!
 
I think that second pic is shooped too. I remember seeing this photo without the sparks at the tail. I'm pretty sure it was just improperly loaded and sat up on it's tail.

That Cub picture is pretty intense!
 
Numbers one and two are PhotoShopped, as to the rest, I would greatly appreciate it if people would stop taking pictures when I'm flying. :icon_lol:
 
OH man... Makes my eyes tear up.... arghh...

Cant believe the ones with engine cowlings and hatches wide open or ripped off.. That would be one scary experience..

I'm almost always scared in an Airbus.

Started to push back at phx on jet blue and saw out the window that the #2 pylon cover at the cowling was peeling off. A maint "tech" came 15 min later and wrapped it in 200mph tape and off we went.

Did make it to Seattle a little late.
 
The Air France Airbus wing strike is a photoshop too, look at the wheels and you can tell it's a pretty bad ps job too.
