One of the coolest aviation pictures I have ever seen.

Should have pasted the plane 3 inches lower to look real. Doesn't the high pressure below the wing go to the low pressure above the wing?

Other way around

I dont know if it is real or not, but it does look really cool.

Thanks for that, some of those are fantastic.

Ultimately, the vortex sheet behind the wing is descending. Where the prior poster is talking about flow from low to high pressure, this causes the tip vortex (which closes the vortex "loop").

If you view it from the Newtonian perspective, the "action" is the descending air ("Pushed" down by the wing), which results in the action (the wing being "pushed" upward).

These guys are "five miles from landing", yet they haven't even began to configure. I vote photoshop.

That is a good observation, I was really hoping that it was not a photoshop, but still looks cool.
