How do we “correct” photos that have been uploaded by other users.
There are countless photos uploaded with wrong tail numbers or even the wrong type of plane or airline. ![]()

That’s actually a very good question???
Many aircraft as they are sold off and replaced with newer aircraft - have the photos of the older non current aircraft and type.
Likewise - many posters have misfiled their photos with incorrect information including wrong aircraft types.
Another suggestion would be to allow fellow FlightAware members to comment on photos - similar to flickr photos.
And have the members avatar or name next their vote, mainly to see who 1-stars pretty much every photo .
Today, alone, I have seen a MD80 labeled as an Embraer 145; a Falcon 2000 labeled as a Falcon 20; an Embraer 145 with the TAIL NUMBER clearly visible incorrectly labeled; an ASA CRJ-700 become the photo for a skywest CRJ-200.
There’s got to be a way we can “edit” these.
Just live with it. It’s a reflection on the uploader, not you as the viewer.
My view’s always been that if I want to track a flight I’ll go to FlightAware. If I want to look at pictures of aircraft I’ll go to jetphotos.net or airliners.net

Please show me where I said I hated the photo section? I’ve indicated that I don’t care for it but that’s a long ways from hating it.
I am not the only one who has asked when the forum is going to be fixed.
N6TY shows up with a photo of a T-6 Texan fixed wing though it is really a Bell 206 helicopter. How do we get this corrected? I’ve uploaded a new photo. Is it a matter of that photo being reviewed and added to the database somewhere?
I thought threads were closed after some time. This is a very old thread. For the current website, it appears you can simply add a comment to the photo.
