Info Question

[CharlieTripp]

This Photo was taken at KLAX, the plane is obviously is painted in Alaskan's Livery but FR24 says it was operating as United 5744, how would it be put in? I don't think this photo is high enough quality but I am curious about this situation. Should it get marked as an Alaskan Aircraft or a United or does it not matter as it will be Skywest airlines either way?

Thanks

Hello
This is actually quite often that the aircraft is leased to another airline for a single flight, or a few.
From My point of view, in a case, that the aircraft is least just for a few flights I would have used the airline that owns it.
In a case, that it is a more long term leasing, like for a whoel summer for example, I would have used the user with the owner specified in brackets such as United(Alaska).

However from my point of view, this photo is back-lit anyway.

You can take this as an example:
A Sky-Up aircraft leased to Smart Wings for a summer period.

All of the above, and indeed. This photo will get rejected anyway for back-lit. No way to fix this sadly…
