Great job. Thanks I will add these and put out an update shortly. I did not check if all of the sightings had been posted in the forum. Out of four I checked three I did not find and the fourth had been posted. I know I do not have all that have been posted. I had a larger collection originally but I had a GE crash.
Keep hunting there must be lots more out there

I have no idea if this is an aerial photo or a satellite photo. Either way it's a private jet in flight. It appears that it may have recently left Dulles due to it's proximity. Aside from the fact it is flying in the direction of earth's rotation and based on the SRB's under the wings - I would've guessed it was trying to reach orbital alignment!

bubulle welcome to GE. That is a rare find most airborne aircraft are at much lower altitudes and near airports.

jennwill99 welcome to GE. A good find this is an aerial photograph. Satellite captured images of aircraft always have a second exposure ahead of the direction of travel at a lower resolution in blue.

"I had a larger collection originally but I had a GE crash."
And no Black Box was found? 
AZTraveller, Great Job! When I posted the one off Anderson Island I asked if anyone ever put all planes found into one folder. Do you ever sleep?!!  I added a parked sea plane on the shore of Lake Tahoe for you. Wabbit

Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple wabbit, lemon wabbit, coconut wabbit, pepper wabbit, wabbit soup, wabbit stew, wabbit salad, wabbit and potatoes, wabbit burger, wabbit sandwich. That- that's about it.

Bonjour, pour trouver des avions en vol, on peut superposer les cartes En Route de l'espace supérieur et inférieur avec une transparence moyenne, de cette façon on repére plus facilement les avions, on ne les trouve plus par hasard... J'ai fais un essai avec les routes supérieures.. We can overlay the aeronautical chart to see aircraft in flight on airways with a medium transparency, we can do it for every countries. I tried with a part of en route chart of upper airspace .

Filipe_Cascao welcome to GE. A good find. This aircraft at 108 ft wing span and a length of 153 ft could be a Boeing 727-200 if what looks like a third engine in the tail is an engine. I will include it in the next update.
Have fun

Draconian welcome to GE. Does not look like this has been posted before. I will include this on the next collection of planes in flight from aerial photographs. Your other post which is an MD11 approaching Honolulu has been posted previously. This is also an aerial photograph and not a satellite image.
All the satellite images have a copyright bottom of screen DigitalGlobe or EarthSat

Not sure if this one has been found yet.
A pretty clear example of the satellite double exposure artifact. Interesting how the plane is white where the exposures overlap, gray/tan on the panchromatic image, and with trailing red streaks on the blue multispectral image.
Just read more than I could quite understand on satellite scanning tech, "time delay integration", "pan sharp |
