A Quick Reference Guide to Categories

[JuklicekCZ]

A very good question! I just wondered if jetphotos is the best platform to talk about Turboprops.

Greetings.

Well, that reminds me of another question, Is jetphotos a good site for uploading glider photos?
And I do not mean gliders, that are equipped with a jet engine.
And also, are gliders equipped with a retractable propeller considered a small prop?
Potentially, the small prop question can even apply to ME-163 Komet as it is equiped with a really tiny propeller, but maybe Komet would require a special "Tiny Prop" category.

I’m trying to submit a photo of a turbo-prop aircraft to the queue, but I’m confused weather or not I should tick the small prop box.

thank you!

A very good question! I just wondered if jetphotos is the best platform to talk about Turboprops.

And you just gave me the answer. Yes!

Honestly, I have never in my life tried to seriously upload one jetphoto to the jetphotos queue (!) . My being here is rather defined by.. knowledge about my home airport,
and knowledge about my favorite airline, and knowledge about my favorite aircraft. All three are to be found in my avatar, or in my signature.

Is a Beech B200 still a small prop?

By range I'd say, no. A twin propeller with more than 1000 nautical miles range in my eyes is no longer small.

So, how do we define a small propeller. Up to 10 passenger seats. And what about an Antonov An-2P. No twin turboprop, and no turboprop at all, but designed for up to 12 passengers
(according to wikipedia).

In my eyes, a Beech B200 is rather a small twin turboprop, but I'd not decide for 'small prop' in case of the B200 .

Good to see that this platform, which I love so very much since almost 14 years, is also good for propeller talk .

I'm pondering whether the Piaggio Avanti is "small prop" or not. My instinct would say "no" (twin prop in a genuinely bizjet-role), but the guidelines say props designed for up to 10 pax ARE "small" (the P180 is built for 7-8 pax).

Your advice?

Hi,

Small prop category goes by the size of the aircraft.

As per the upload guidelines:

Small Prop
To be used for small props which have been designed for up to 10 passengers.

thank you so much.!…silly me, my first instinct should have been to look at the upload guidelines, but once again thank you.

Would a C-40A be considered a business jet if its registered to the USN?
Thank you in advance

Yep, you're right. During each new session after a while I always have fingertrouble finding through the categories... Today at a 2nd trial I've found the right one for the picture mentioned above.

Hello,

got a rejection due to "bad info - airline" https://www.jetphotos.com/viewqueued_b.php?id=8414762
The picture shows a brand-new registration for an old cn but the registration was a former fleet-registration of an authority. At the tail is the old company-logo of a former owner, who operated this aircraft simply for his company.All other infos are correct, I did research and found out the former registration and owner.
I took "unknown" because the current new owner is private and unknown, but still no airline. So what to choose?

You answered your question yourself : upload it as "Private"

With the standard C208/208B config being 12/13 pax (single or dual pilot), shouldn't it be no categories?

[Bruce]

Yes.

Thanks!

Southwest Airlines' gold colored Herbert D. Kelleher 737 N711HK - would that be considered a special color scheme?

Yes.
