Is this a top secret plane?

White Sands? White Sand is no where near Area 51 WTF?

White Sands is in New Mexico

Area 51 is in Nevada

In one of the original photos, Whitesides Hill is clearly visible on the right side of the image. It has a somewhat pointy peak but the white feature that gives it the name is not visible from this angle. I still find the vehicle highly suspect (it looks like an R/C model) but at least we know the picture was taken overlooking Tikaboo Valley, Nevada, and pointing in the general direction of Groom Lake.

Its was a joke Zorgon. I'm well aware and it was sorta joking jab at location.

On top of that everything looks the same out there anyways

Umm what code tags?
Also yes this works on any jpegs. Program is called HexEdit that i use.
And yes I'll repeat again no this doesn't prove a fake but its a strong mark against it.
But no one has done much to prove its real. The strongest thing that has come up is the background and trying to figure it out.

Like quote tags, but instead of "quote" type "code".

I think so anyway, been a while since I used BBCode.

Oh sure I can try it that way to fix the issue thanks. Didn't understand thats what you where referring to. Its already posted as visible in the photo account but doesn't hurt to show it again.

And thats the result. So it doesn't fix it what ever the issue is. The image is still there for people to see hex screen shot.

Oh well, worth a try.

Nevermind. Answered my own question, missed someone elses posting.

AH Must be that weird CANADIAN humour Eh? :p

But my point was I asked the OP where he took the photo. While it may all look the same to a crazy Cannuck, to me it doesn't. I know the hills around the neighborhood. The fact I cannot get an answer on the location speaks louder than whether the photo is real or not . Surely he can point to a map and say "I was here"

I think what you want is unicode. ATS is one of the few boards that has set up the Unicode feature...

It kinda looks like a B-2 Stealth Bomber to me, but maybe not.

I think he is talking about code tags? #

my two cents go on :

aereodynamic low altitude tests of the scramjet testbed ( the hypersonic plane launched "publically" a few years go on top of a pegasus missile... this looks bigger, perhaps a proof of concept model ...

or possibly a blended wing plane ( but looking at the pictures i'm more for #1 option)

definetly not f117, not a trianglar ufo kid of craft since it is triangular but two sides are obviously longer than the other giving it the so called "aurora" look.

Interesting pictures, not cgi in my opinion

So who is paying you to push killing this thread?

Really does look like an Aurora. However, there's no contrail caused the PDEs. Did you see it take off and land? Hear any dull booms like 'skyquakes'?

I've said it before and I'll say it again. This is a hoax. It has no visible propulsion system, the fin on one side and not the other makes it look similar to an X-38, and, oh yeah, zooming back a bit, yes, Project Aurora is a classified project, involving a prototype bomber currently located at A53, in Virginia. The S does not stand for AntiSubmarine. The topic is interesting, but I don't believe it's the subject for debate about whether it is an F-117 or UAV.

So instead of using somewhere like Tonopah or Area 51 they're going to test an ultra top secret aircraft in Virginia. Sure, makes perfect sense to me. Interesting how there isn't even a rumor of an Area 53 too. If you're going to test something this top secret, the LAST place you would test it would be Virginia. Too many chances of being seen, when there are too many wide open less populated areas that could be used.

It's the side-profile of the F-117 Nighthawk. You can see the cockpit sticking up in the middle of it.

We've pretty much established that hoax or not, its definitely NOT an F-117 at any angle.
