      What makes you think it is slop based on the few pixels I can see I don’t see anything obvious suggesting that it isn’t just a bad edit of a photo when the plane was parked.

      Are the wings too short?

        The wings are assymmetrical (the turbines, specifically), the windows are irregular, the people have weird anatomy (three feet, for example) and it’s an image where it’s very likely that no human made this in Photoshop.

        Edit: And one wheel is down.

          Uneven spacing is normal around the over wing exit(s) but I agree that it doesn’t quite seem right.

          The engine hamster-pouch seems not quite right for a 737NG. I’m a bit suspicious of the air data probes, too.

          NLG but no MLG is a very very big red flag. Altitude is also much much higher than would normally be expected to have gear down, and air to air shots with gear extended are rare.

          The viewing window on the 1L door seems a bit low.

          That said, it’s quite hard to find a picture from this angle for comparison.

          That’s what later generation turbines look like, it’s for better ground clearance. You also can’t see the rear wheels from this angle.

    I wouldn’t I have a phone and noise cancelling headphones, I’ll just put on music and half-sleep through the flight.
