The guy that posted this has 4 photos, 3 of them are from 3different A-net users, the strip at the bottom was left in, this photo of the Mexican registered cessna isn’t even tagged correctly, and to top it off, its a staff pick!?
thought there were some general rules regarding this…

The staff member who picked rather than deleting has been appropriately lampooned.

Heres another that posted an [Airliners.net](http://Airliners.net) photo and a photo with a watermark I have never seen? Photo burglars!

Well, in his defense he may just be too stupid and can’t understand what “do not upload images you do not own or photos with a watermark” means.

And whats funny is the last photo, PT-MUD, he marked it as being at Heathrow when it is clearly at the Boeing Plant! And that was the first 5 photos I picked. I bet if all were looked at, he is a serial photo burlar! 😮

Maybe he’ll get the picture to take his own pictures instead of stealing other pictures and posting them on the picture section… Get the picture.
