OldPilot55. The height of the "aircraft" is 7057 kilometres if the image came from an IKONOS satellite and 681 km if taken by GeoEye-1. I suspect the latter. The size calibration is a given based on the equipment used. They are two images of the same spot at the close to the same time with different filters.
