Where did the photo in the OP come from ?
How would you take that photo and get the light / shadows correct
of the aircraft was not airborne ?
Quote from an F4 pilot:- If it was airborne, why the need to Photoshop it as it is an easy photo to set up.
Opinion of an F4 pilot is
- plenty of photos out there of a similar nature
- big bypass in the engine, so it wasn't a massively
hot jet efflux at less than high power settings
Hopefully F4 mate will be along in the near future
