What a bummer. We helped map the Kerrville floods for support of the state. Same day we mapped it, so did this WB-57 - only 35K feet above us. Such a historic and unique aircraft - I feel bad for the pilots onboard knowing it will likely total that aircraft even if it was a mechanical failure.
- dylan604 8mo agoWas it flying at the same time? Maybe your plane is visible in the WB-57's imagery?
- jstanley 8mo agoMaybe stretched out into one massive smear of a plane, like when you drag your hand across a flatbed scanner
- dylan604 8mo agoHow long of an exposure do you think they would be taking?
- jhayward 8mo agoIt's not uncommon for older aerial photos to be single-pixel lines that the film is moved past. The motion of the film is correlated with the motion across the ground, so you can reconstruct a 2nd axis from the exposure. There's no shutter speed, it's continuous.
