Just wondering if there is an absolute limit to the number of pictures of a specific aircraft that would be accepted from a single Photog?
I'm aware of the common and quality rules as numbers in the DB rise (I've had plenty of rejects for those), but exceptional pictures will hopefully always make it on.
So how many do you have accepted of a single aircraft?

Hi John,
I've got some baddouble rejections for uploading two shots of rare Indonesian airliners on rare airfields.
You've got nineteen shots accepted of this Spit - three shot on October 2, two on July 16, three on July 3, and so on. I've no problems with that as they are nice photos, but you really shouldn't be suprised to get rejections.

I've had one common rejection so far: a side-on of a Virgin B744.
There's only one a/c that I have more than 2 pics of in the d/b, that's a Cessna 172. The scandalous thing is, they were all taken the same day! However, one is me standing on the ground while the plane is landing, the other two are window shots that are IMHO different enough to waive the baddouble rule...

Sorry, it seems I misread John's post - he isn't being surprised or complaining.
There are three airframes of which I have three shots on. In one of these cases, two shots were taken on the same day. It's not a take-off and a landing shot, so I guess I did qualify for baddouble.
Some great examples of doing very different things with the same aircraft. Don't forget also that the aircraft changed scheme, and that some rules have changed since acceptance (eg. the two "September 7, 2002" shots would be baddouble these days).

My point was the similarity of the pictures, look at the clouds, and the pole in front, it is obvious that both pictures were taken at the same time. In fact, isn't the left one badcentre?
After Monday and Tuesday even the calendar says WTF...

Sorry John, it's Bad Centre and my wife wants to know why people are allowed to put her name on their aircraft!
Seriously, great pictures, beats me with my measly two of this one.
What about a cockpit shot to complete the set?
Or join the in crowd and try the artistic direction along these lines

Hi Malcolm,
I purposely cropped this one with the wings not equal to the borders, I imagined a line through the centre of the fuselage to centre the aircraft....honest..
Cockpit and artsy shots coming, I've already had a few accepted like these,
And as I've just discovered that as a Photo Section Member at Old Warden, I'm allowed airside before the display, I might well soon be seen crawling around underneath those parked on the flightline!
Oh, strange name your wife has....how do you pronounce.. NNA?

Sorry, I missunderstood you. To me both look well centered...that can't be
