The aircraft looks like a C-5, which doesn't have props but rather turbofan engines. The smoke from the flares offer a means to see the airflow pattern which is the result of the creation of lift. Think Newton's F=ma, the force keeping the aircraft in the air is a result of the acceleration of the air. The vortex is generated from the air trying to move from the high to the low pressure area of the wing. Clouds in the first picture and flares in the helicopter pic show this too.
Akkamaan, sorry if you think I was trying to discount your myth debunk, I wasn't. I look forward to your next installment![]()
Don't worry about it, I really enjoyed your brightness, and I think we are settled on the "same side of the table" now.....keep up debating!
