Composite shot of hundreds of planes taking off at Hanover Airport

Also, there is a Southwest Airlines plane in there as well. I don't think they fly to Europe.

Oh, the tower operator is so fucking fired.

I call fake.

Why? Because the top plane in the second column from the left is a smallish turboprop (propeller) plane with the Air New Zealand koru (logo) on it. Air New Zealand uses these planes solely for small domestic routes (even in NZ they use 737s between the main centres).

These turboprops definitely do not have the range to go overseas. Therefore I really do doubt that all these planes were photographed taking off from Hannover Airport in Germany.

No, this is real. I was on that SW flight. It was supposed to be from Little Rock to Dallas, but we had to make an emergency landing in Langenhagen Germany.

It appears the image was manipulated using Adobe® Photoshop® software.

rozero1234 · 8 months

No it's real. you can see virgin airlines takes off waaaaaaaaaaaayyy too early lol

Nice artwork, but the reason you can tell its photo shopped...look at the Lufthansa Regional Jet. The split in the left engine is the thrust reverser in deploy mode, something that should only happen on the ground, and if its open in flight, its a real emergency.

Cessna on top. Eat it jet jockies.

BCF1432 · 8 months

Glaringly fake, but a cool concept all-together.

TheEverman · 8 months

I dont even think this a hundred planes, so its hardly fair to say hundreds.

MUCHAL_JUFNERS · 8 months

What type of photography is this that every thing looks like toys, and why does it look that way? I've seen a few videos like this.

And like that, the males begin their migration to the coast to find sustenance for their mates and young.

ShiekYiboudi · 8 months

Fake. Southwest and Midwest airlines don't fly to Hanover, Germany. Also, look at the Lufthansa CRJ. The thrust reversers are open. This doesn't happen in flight and when it does it is an emergency.

Considering that Air New Zealand plan is a turbo prop that doesn't operate outside of New Zealand I can safely say this picture is a crock.

Sweating on the top line At the airline Check-in not check out Wish I could get the hell out This is no joke The thing could go up in smoke Or plummet to the ground As the G-force pulls us down

Flight! Fright! Get uptight! Throw a seven in the clouds and Out go yer lights City to city! State to state! Roasting coast to coast In a megaton freight crate

Hurtle down the runway Is it a one way trip to heaven Or hell on wheels? In a 747 I get a little freaky When there's only air and Steel beneath me

"Fasten your seatbelt We hope you enjoy the ride."

CHORUS Junk metal in the air! It's a total nightmare At 20,000 feet!

Are ready for a rough ride? Tis could be suicide Turbulance ahead I think my lunch Is on the uprise! Far out! This dread ain't funky My hair's on end there's no blood left in me! It's not the car of the bus Or the train! It's the plane

When we hit top speed It's always the same Sweating red hot But chilled to the bone Side to side Bouncing off the ozone

Tranquilise me! Hypnotise me! Technofear haz paralyzed me all around me people grinning Laughing while my head is Spinning Shakin' like a leaf From my head to my feet Strapped to a seat At 20,000 feet

Safer in the air Than on the ground!

This isn't real. Why do the smaller regional prop planes require a longer takeoff than wide-bodies like the 747-400 to the right of the picture?

cryptogram · 8 months

So a number of posts call fake, which is probably true.. but I wanted to make my comment on a fundamental inaccuracy of the title. "hundreds of planes" ... really? There's probably not even 75 in there..

Hangover airport sounds like a terrible place to be

maltman1856 · 8 months

Really... "hundreds of planes". Looks more like 74.

Fake or not, fantastic image.

Jdklaffke · 8 months

someone should actually do a photo like this and see what it looks like

daniel_oliva · 8 months

I can tell it from the pixels.

nitefang · 8 months

Well now that we seem to have established it is fake, I really want someone to do this for real.

oilbased · 8 months

this is a beautiful image, however id like to see a genuine composite from a few different airports in different countries and different cities, major hubs and minor hubs... then sell it at an art show and make 200k

nnikb7 · 8 months

That air traffic controller...

fiftydowrar · 8 months

The Cessna at the top is almost half the length of the Qantas 747-400 in the centre.

Seems legit.

snwilson29 · 8 months

I especially like the plane that is on the ground... um excuse me sir, you're going the wrong way!

A rough count revealed, that there are only 60-70 planes taking off....not HUNDREDS.
