Ahaha. I love people's comments about it. Quite a few just don't get it. Idiots.

Hey I just noticed this on there. Anyone else think this is a photoshop?

Ya think???

Ya think???

Looks it, but it reminds me of a buddy of mine who was flying Eagles out of Bitburg way back when. He did a low approach / fly-by and scratched up his drop tank (the belly one). That was fun to explain.

Can some explain what that grey pointed thing is aft of the tailpipe? Looks like that wasn't photoshopped out.

Actually, that's part of the airplane. http://images.google.com/images?q=SU-30&hl=en&btnG=Search+Images

That picture's fake. Not even the Russians are that crazy.

Edit: Or Chinese, or whoever the hell that is. I think that thing is some kind of sensor pod of some kind. Rear facing radar or something. Fighter guys could tell us for sure.

I don't think it's fake, look at the fire department guys looking at it from a distance. My buddy that flew in the Thunderbirds used do low transitions all the time.

The plane is real, just the gear are airbrushed out, well thats my opinion
