The plane is taking off Woodlouse, off center take off...hmmm...but the first pic is a take off from a taxiway?..too bad Papa you were on the right track for a bit.....Good observation Rimshot, but I always have  aircraft casts shadows turned off, it's not the answer.  Here's another clue....."Is pic one taking off from a taxi way and pic 2 from a runway but off center and pic 3 from where? Don't think so!"  ;)

The wing is bent down when it should be bent up?

Sorry Jake, the answer lies not in any of the aircrafts individual parts... :)

Three different take-offs?

first shot appears that the plane is banked to the right a little and the right main is off the ground

second and third shot appears to have all gear on the ground but in the second the angle of attack looks to be about 40 degrees and in the third it appears less than in shot one or two.

Looks like you're taking off from a parallel runway... There's something odd with the perspective between the plane and the runway in the back... could explain the off-center look... I'm I close?  :)

Unfortunately no-one has arrived at the answer as yet. I think "unusual" may be an inappropriate term to describe the answer. "Surprising" is more to the point. It's something that you'll be surprised about based on the way the pics look. I think the best clue was there's a clear visual (in pic 2 and 3 particularly) that gives the answer away. Sargent Omag, that clue's on your shoulder!  :)

I just noticed a difference between the first and the other ones, while the first one is well OK, the others are over 100kb.....

Shot 3 is the only one being more than 500px in the height....

They all have different heights....

The angles of the shots gives a slight impression of the plane being at an angle to the runway.

I hadn't even noticed the pics are over the limit, a quick fix this evening when I get home...Thanks!...but not the answer...

Clue......The more you look for differences the less likely you are to decipher the puzzle.....

It's the same plane, in the same position, at the same time, just taken from different angles :P
