Beechcraft Super King Air 350 (N837UP)
Comments
Same photo for different registration in the Up in the Air fleet ? really ??
technically these photos are legit...wheels up sent an email and authorized this user to upload photos so people can see the plane while tracking it...
It's BS but it's the owners call...

Very cool!
Really tired of seeing these planes take over a good website, a real shame...
It is a real shame. Same photo posted 48 time now. All 48 are ranked as the best photos on the site with five star ratings. That pretty disrespectful of the actual good photos FA has. The poster is a FA employee so I'm guessing these are paid advertisement. Wish they would remove them or at the least unpin them from the top but I guess money talks.
I agree, I wish they would remove all but 1 of them.
Also the one of the executive jet that he has uploaded.
Wonder if he is going to defend himself???
In the first place it looks like a smart marketing idea for UP.
Not good for the many contributors of plane spotter photos though.
It is also a shame that the 2 top uploaders mostly just "dump" their memory cards on the site. No description of the photos and poor quality.

I gave a few of the same photographs a 1* rating just to see if the average of 5.00 comes down. It doesn't. This guy must have rigged the webpage and must be a worker of FA. I will not contribute any photographs on FA anymore untill FA stops this mockery by deleting all but one photograph.
Same here Tom, that and when I get a new camera that takes decent pics.
Hmm, I wonder why rating it one star does nothing to change the average?
Also normally FA doesn't let you submit the same photo twice so something's wrong.
And also, all of the registrations to each photo are not the same and because the wing blocks the registration you can't tell what the actual registration is.
Tyler, Cade, and all others .... In the interest of saving you any more time wondering about these photos, I'll just pass along this info....
The circumstances surrounding these photos were all questioned a couple of years ago. Although no direct explanation was offered, the below listed info was (informally) provided.
1) Two pictures are all that are shown. The different reg numbers show the many aircraft in the Wheels Up "fleet," but only two photos are shown and the fact that the reg numbers of each are not visible is deliberate so that one pic can be used to represent many a/c.
2) FA is fully aware. The poster of the photos and the FA founder are acquainted.
3) On (almost) all of the posts, only "5 star" votes will be recorded. Anything less than a "5 star" vote will not record and; therefore, cannot be tallied into the average.
4) The photos do not always accurately portray the liveries of the actual aircraft. For instance, one of the aircraft actually has a bright pink paint scheme, etc., etc.
5) These photos will always be the highest rated photos in the gallery.
6) FlightAware is a business. Wheels Up is a business, too.
The above six items are what was learned a couple years back.

Gary is correct and makes a good point here with his #2 and #6 statements!!!
:-)
:-)
They're nearly all the exact same pic...
Ahh we all know what photo is the real #1 photo this set drives me nuts but hey FA needs to make money to stay on the web so...
That explains it...
