OK class, spot the phony plane, and pick out the mistakes...

Posted: **Fri Jun 03, 2005 8:40 pm**

Who's been having fun in photoshop then??? :lol:

The second one looks a little out of place...
The Qantas logo is upside down and the Australian flag is back to front (but you may not have changed that...)

Posted: **Fri Jun 03, 2005 9:05 pm**

Hey John, I never noticed the flag being back to front? I wonder why? I havn't flipped the image or similar. The Qantas sign is obvious and well done, 100% there, but there are several other (childish) mistakes in the photo. I guess at 43 I have never grown up...

I think the flag flies with the mast into the wind on both sides... so on the other side of the plane it will be round the other way...

I've spotted another of your mods... but I'll let someone else have a go...

Since when does a 767 have an upper passenger deck? i.e. secoind row of windows??

Posted: **Fri Jun 03, 2005 11:43 pm**

Well spotted dhess, another clue discovered! There's a few more...

Posted: **Fri Jun 03, 2005 11:45 pm**

Missing winglets on the 767

Posted: **Fri Jun 03, 2005 11:49 pm**

No wingtips on this particular 767!

Posted: **Fri Jun 03, 2005 11:51 pm**

Incorrect serial number: extra VH and it looks like it says 7677 for model number??

Posted: **Fri Jun 03, 2005 11:52 pm**

Is the plane missing a few doors? i.e. towards the cockpit?

Posted: **Sat Jun 04, 2005 12:00 am**

phony 2nd tier windows on the Qantas plane ??
Extra Aero tip on top of the Qantas plane ??
Extra wheels on the UA plane ??

Posted: **Sat Jun 04, 2005 12:03 am**

That Qantas plane must be made like the seven-and-a-half floor...

Posted: **Sat Jun 04, 2005 12:52 am**

Are the colours of the United Airlines logo round the wrong way :?:

Posted: **Sat Jun 04, 2005 8:00 am**

Interestingly, the flag on the UA aircraft is also backwards.

Posted: **Sat Jun 04, 2005 9:42 am**

the flags look backwards because they are painted as though they are flying with airflow from the aircraft's movement. if you look at the port side of the aircraft you'll see that the flags are "normal"

Very good, two front doors missing.

Phony second tier correct, other two observations no. Well done.

Chris, havn't touched the UA plane, that's not to say some spray painter in Seattle painted the thing the wrong way!

There's only one more modification and it isn't on the plane (that's a bit corny eh?), have a guess (it's to do with height). Max

Posted: **Sat Jun 04, 2005 12:12 pm**

I thought the 767 looked a bit too low. I looks like its going to lose its tail by scraping it against the runway.

Good try but no, it took off very nicely from memory, another clue: has to do with a non-plane item in the background (which makes this thread even more corny)...

I've forgotten, there is also something askew about the plane windows (not the fact that there is no double row of windows on 767's).

Max

Posted: **Sat Jun 04, 2005 5:10 pm**

That chimney looks a little high???

Very good, two front doors missing.

I'd also suggest that the front bank of windows on the 767 isn't correct either; it looks as if you've cloned and flipped the windows from the rear of the plane into the front section directly under the satnaQ badging.

And no, on the UA plne, it won't have been a spray painter in Seatle, but more likely one in Chicago, which is where UA is headquartered.

Posted: **Sat Jun 04, 2005 7:59 pm**

I've got it - the QANTAS jet has no tail section, so therefore it couldn't really take off, could it???

Posted: **Sat Jun 04, 2005 8:04 pm**

You're correct Gary, windows are all wrong and yes, Chicago is the place now, not Seattle (just testing there :shock:

), and yes, there was a tail attached, handy things they are...Max

The clouds in the background appear to be so low that they are obscurring the top of the taller chimney!?!

Posted: **Mon Jun 06, 2005 10:44 pm**

Sort of right, but it has something to do with the chimney, Max

Posted: **Tue Jun 07, 2005 12:49 pm**

duh!

The chimneys don't belong in the airport picture. They are cut and pasted from another location.

Why would chimneys just jut out of the ground that is practically at sea level?

Posted: **Tue Jun 07, 2005 1:09 pm**

I better finish this quiz, you're half right again dhess, the chimneys are actually there, but the height is incorrect, they have been cloned and pasted above the plane and should stay below! well done, you are now dux of class.. :wink:

the wheels are in the part-way up position

do they really bring the wheels up that quick after takeoff??. . . or did you place the plane back closer to the ground
