Ok...this is strange.

I'm not a conspiracy head...but without an explanation this strikes me as very curious.

I went looking for photos of this airplane when I saw the registration number on Filght Aware dot com.

I found several sites that have photos posted.

One of them is Jetphotos dot com.

If you look at this photo...it shows to have been viewed 15,000 + times. (the others show from 500 to 2000+.

Now the strange part....if you click the photo history link on the photo page you get this page....

Why did the photo views of this aircraft jump from TWO views on May 29, 2009 to 14,000 views on May 30? Notice that the jump is a full day before the accident.....

Anyone find this strange? Or is this a website anomaly that has the post count two days behind?

Things that make you go HMMMMMM.... :

Ok...I'll take off my tin hat...

I see that the Jet Photos dot com server date is off by 2 days... :

By the end of the day yesterday the photo was up to 26,000 views.

It is still a bit weird because there have been zero hits today. and some of the other photos of that plane had small spike of a couple of hundred or so in the days leading up to the loss.

Who knows...

Sorry about the weirdness.
