What was changed

Each image has been resized and recompressed to suit a web page, and nothing else — no cropping, retouching or recolouring. The photographs remain under the licences above; this page's licensing says nothing about them. If you want to reuse one, take it from the source link rather than from here, and follow its own licence terms.

Why photographs at all

The diagrams elsewhere on the site are drawn here, because a drawing can isolate the one detail that settles an identification — a nacelle cross-section, a canard position, the number of wheels on a bogie — in a way a photograph never quite does. The photographs do the other half of the job: showing you what the aircraft actually looks like when it goes over. Both are better than either.

If you are one of the photographers

If an attribution here is wrong, or you would rather your photograph were not used, say so at admin@omyplane.com and it will be corrected or removed.
