This needs to be enlarged, better detail.

This is tail number 28000. The other plane is tail number 29000. It was specifically stated the plane in question was the backup plane. Is the backup plane 28000 or 29000, and was a specific tail number ever mentioned for the plane in question?

It is strange that there are shadows on the aircraft, yet none on Liberty Island?

Ok.. I use to work with USAF Photographers for over 22 years

That has to be one the WORSE Aeriel photo I have ever seen. It looks like the shot was from one of the F-16 chase planes by the reflection in the upper right-hand corner. The camera was improperly set.. the exposure sucks. At the very least.. its in focus.

There are more shots.. I would at least like the FULL disclosure.

Should’nt the shadow lines near the plane engines paralell the lines in the background? can’t really tell, but it is an awfull shot through a curved window with window frame in bottom right corner.

Looks like the pilot used a $200 digital camera. This is no professional USAF photo. This whole thing stinks.

This is snapshot quality work. The pilot took this using a cheap handheld point-and-shoot digital camera through the canopy of his aircraft. You don’t spend $375,000 to get such a crappy photograph. You send a professional photographer with professional equipment to take a reasonably good picture.

Compare this to other AF1 beauty shots. It doesn’t even come close.
