Hi
While playing with Google Earth, i found a place with two planes
overlapping each other:
http://213.235.28.68/temp/TwoPlanes.kmz
It looks like it is 747, probably 747-400. But i am not sure why there
are two planes in such proximity. Could it be the shadow? But why is it
in colour then? Or could it be the reflection off the clouds? But how
could the while vapour trace also reflect off the clouds?
May be it is just the spot when two photos taken at different times
been merged together, so these are two different planes (or the same
plane at different times)? But you usually clearly see such a boundary
between two photos in Google Earth. This is different. Plus chance of
taking two photos and catching a plane in almost exactly the same spot
on both of them must be rather slim
So some forensic work is required to solve this mystery. Any ideas?
Thanks
