Hi,
Im a member of a Historic Aviation forum and the following aircraft image has recently been discussed there. It appears that a large number of forumites consider the image a modern fake.
There is a general consensus, that the pilot in the aircraft is a dummy, as its impossible to position a limp body in that pose. The aircraft has furthermore been moved from its original location and has sustained damage not consistent with a belly landing.
The picture is thus a fake crash. But is the picture a period (WWII) photograph, or is it a modern reconstruction based on a model aircraft (its quite possible to make such a detailed model if you are a model geek!)?
We all agree that the picture has some kind of a fake quality, but not about why it looks fake. It would be interesting to see, what a photographer thinks of the picture.
