As if your poor photography wctually whows they are "unmarked"
What "marks" are you expecting to see??
You do realise that airline markings are not a requirement? You are perfectly legally allowed to fly with a pure white, or pure black or pure silver
a/c if you want.
Registration markings only have to be 1 foot high and the letters 2" wide - look up FAR 49 for the US regulations, other states are pretty much the
same.
But of course airlines generally want people to know who they are so they paint their a/c in colours for everyone to see. But they normally do not
paint the registration marks any higher than they need to.
It is not too difficult at all to get a setup that can easily identify airline colours as high as 40,000 feet and probably beyond - this guy did it -
www.skystef.be... so why dont' you instead of showing everyone how inadequate your equipment is for the purpose you say you use it
for!
If you can see pinted nacelles and/or a spash of colour on the tail then you probably CAN go some way to identifying the airline - you leaping to
conclusions just shows how little effort you are prepared to go to to get accurate info - as soon as something fits your fantasy you loudly exclaim it
as the truth rather than keep investigating.
