Auto-fill
JetPhotos maintains the autofill as accurately as possible, however bad information submitted in the past does make it's was through so please check every entry.
Genre
Normally self explanatory. Ex-military aircraft now privately owned on the civil register should be listed as 'Civilian'.
Locations
All main airports are listed on the menu using the ICAO four letter airport code. If your airport is not listed please add it via http://www.jetphotos.net/addphotos/addairport.php
If your photo is taken whilst airborne select the country you are flying over then 'Inflight'. 'International Airspace' should be used sparingly only when over water with no knowledge of which countries airspace you are in.
If your photo was taken at a location away from an airport please use the 'Other Location' option. Minimise the data you enter and please do not type 'Off Airport' as used on other websites.
Aircraft Types
Most are as listed in the aircraft menus. If the type is not in the menu you can have it added at http://www.jetphotos.net/addphotos/addaircraft.php
Airlines
Most are as listed in the airline menus. If the airline is not in the menu you can have it added at http://www.jetphotos.net/addphotos/addairline.php Non-aviation companies will not be listed, such as 'Ford Company' or 'Roman Abromavich'. These are listed as 'Private'. 'Untitled' should be used sparingly as the operator of most aircraft can be obtained via the links above.
Registrations
Standard national registration markings should be used. The following countries do not use a hyphen:
Korea - HLxxxx
Japan - JAxxxx
United States - Nxxxx
Construction Numbers
Must be entered as obtained from the autofill or other website links. Please think very carefully before pressing 'Send Photo & Information;' when the CN field is still blank. If in doubt use this forum to make enquires prior to uploading. If no CN can be found leave a note for the screener in the 'Comments to Screeners' field.
Some regulators vary the way CNs are written, please use the JP standard:
Boeing - only use the numbers before any / symbol. Numbers after that / symbol are the line number which we do not use.
Bombardier Learjets - xx-xxx (please note a Learjet 35A will be 35-xxx to match our census)
Cessna Props - xxxxxxx (the first three digits are the make, ie a Cessna 172 will be 172xxxx)
Cessna Jets - xxx-xxxx (the first three digits are the make, ie a Cessna 525 will be 525-xxxx)
Piper - xx-xxxxx (the first two digits are the make, ie a Piper PA-28 will be 28-xxxx)
Reims-Cessna - Fxxxxxxx (the first three digits are the make, ie a Reims-Cessna F172 will be F172xxxx, many regulators only list the last four digits)
