I've seen new rules about submitting aircraft photos - when people submitting several similar photos of same aircraft.
I have a question: if same aircraft is photographed on different dates, would be ok to submit such photos or not? and if it won't look very same, let's say, at different angle...etc?

Thanks,
G

If the same aircraft is photographed on different dates or at a different location then that is OK.
The problem we were getting was a small number of people were "memory card dumping" and uploading 12 to 15 images of the same aircraft taxiing or flying by

Chris is absolutely right and I would add just a little more.

Please don't be tempted to take an unnecessary number of shots of the same view of the same aircraft simply because it is on a different date and a different location. Better to have a reason to do so which may be of particular interest to the site.

Also there have been a number of so called close ups taken from the same position as another wider shot of the aircraft. Unless these show much greater detail than is shown in the wider view, they may be treated as duplicates.

Malcolm.
