Just one last note the plane is at 7200 metres,a few people on the APOD
thought the image was a fake,and did some maths-well quite a lot of maths!They also checked all the specs on the Bombadier Q400,apparently it cruises at 8000 m,so the plane was still climbing."

Hi Chris, just interested to know how you found out the plane was at 7200 metres. My calcs from the image came up with an altitude of close to 21,000 feet (6,400 metres).
Congrats on the APOD and other press!
Chris
