Re: A plane in flight ID helper

For the past day or so Ive been trying to come up with a way to help me better ID planes in flight. Im absolutely terrible at it and using the net wasnt helping. Too much info, too many URLs to look at, hardly any overhead shots to go by = frustration.
So I thought, why not just use Bebop's ID replies (which we all can trust) and throw some actual screenshots into 1 pic with dimensions on top and ID on bottom? hmm. I started working on it.
Well, I ended up with a very messy looking pic, lol, but one that I think will help a little.
Granted, the dimensions are hard because of a planes altitude, most arent accurate but it will at least give a rough measurement and something to go by. The main thing is the looks of the plane along with the ID. I was going to just keep this on my hard drive but now decided to post it here so others can use it if they want, or for any constructive critisizm on how to improve it.
These were the most popular planes, and almost all big ones. Theres many others. If I find a bunch of different planes maybe ill start a second picture. The measurements are in feet (sorry metric users) The L is the length of the body and WS is wingspan.
