Small passenger jet caught in flight in the Hawkesbury River near Brooklyn , N.S.W , Australia , note reflection in water - how low is it ? , compare nearby oyster punt for size !
* While you are here take a fly around one of the most beautiful river systems in the world - The Hawkesbury River Governer Phillip rated it alongside the Rhine and the Thames as a natural wonder in 1788, the sheer rising sandstone cliffs are truly awesome !
---------------------------- Nice Dash 8 find.  I added it to the collection up top. Cyclonic

Hi and welcome to GE..That shadow is what's called a "motion ghost" This Satellite's takes 2 Images, The first in black & white is the actual picture and the second is only the colors. So anything that moves has its colors out in front of it.( Its a shame with jets because some have nice paint jobs and we cant see them.) The faster the jet moves, the farther out in front its colored ghost is. And like Chris say's its a new find and will be added to Cyclonic's " All Aircraft in Flight " later today 
. Keep Hunting and keep Posting Delta102

Thanks for that info there I kind of had a suspicion it was some digital glitch after I checked some more similar postings - no hats lost on the oyster punt that day !
