    • Thanks for looking into it. I disagree with the response but it's not my train set.

      Oddly, the response didn't come through by email as usual. Same as the image that entered screening but got lost in the system and there wasn't an email.

      As always, thanks for the help.

      • Hi,

        I was going to add an aircraft to the database but I can't find the serial number for the aircraft anywhere (based in Ethiopia). Can it still be added? If not, is there a way to find out what it is? -the aircraft is the Abyssinian Flight Services Diamond DA42NG ET-ASF.

        Thanks

        • If an aircraft has left the fleet or is stored (not belonging to the airline) e.g. TJ-CAC or 5N-MJH, how is that recorded on the upload page?

            If titles still displayed, please upload as such. Otherwise, untitled.

              Separately, I was going to add an aircraft to the database but I can't find the serial number for the aircraft anywhere (based in Ethiopia). Can it still be added? If not, is there a way to find out what it is? -the aircraft is the Abyssinian Flight Services Diamond DA42NG ET-ASF.

              • This Hot image was rejected because the registration is not visible.



                This airline only places the registration in front of the horizontal stab. It is not possible to get access to a location where you can get the registration included so I uploaded this image, especially as many other first registrations don't seem to have visible registrations.

                It's not my trainset so happy to leave it but the database will miss out on the aircraft as it looked as though it was on its way to the scrap yard. Alternatively, I can upload it as a normal image since it is the Hot Photo that caused the problem.

                  That would be the best course of action.

                  • I have an image of ET-AKE (Ethiopian Airlines 757-200) being dismantled. I was going to upload it as a Hot Photo but you can't see the registration. Will it be rejected as a Hot Photo because the registration can't be seen? -I'd like to avoid taking a hit on the acceptance ratio.

                      Why would it be hot? Registration not visible is not a reason for rejection unless there is suspicion of cheating.

                        - Because it’s being dismantled (Upload Guidelines 2.5, item 5, other newsworthy event).
                        - I had an image rejected recently for the registration not being visible. Re uploaded it as a std photo and it was later tagged by a screener as new registration (but acceptance ratio affected).

                        Only trying to help but I do agree there are some out there who would rather cheat than do things properly.

                        On a separate note, I have an image for a new reg but the serial number isn’t available (Ethiopia). I contacted the operator and manufacturer for it but no response. Can it still be uploaded as Hot or standard but with a comment to highlight this deficiency.

                        Many thanks as always.

                          Hardly newsworthy.

                          Rejected because it was not hot. It would not have been rejected for that reason if it had been submitted to the normal queue.

                          • Interesting, plenty of other non-newsworthy images uploaded as hot photos but not my train set.

                              Examples?
