Sooo, I was just casualy taking pics of airplanes descending to Prague (PRG) in czech republic, when I saw a quadjet flying above me (around 30,000 feet) that was not show on Flightradar. Well I took couple of pictures of it and did not care about it anymore thinking that it is "just" a 747 (I did not look at picture preview because the sun was shining directly at my camera's display). Then I got bored, returned home, and looked at those photos at my computer. And this happened:
ILUŠIN.jpg
At first I thought that it's Il-76, but then I compared it to actual Il-76 in Blender and I noticed that it has a different shape and enignes... long story short, I found out that it propably is C-5 Galaxy.

But when you look at the picture I made, you can clearly see some kind of "stripe" between it's wings and tail. It is propably not a shadow, because you can clearly see shaddows of wings being projected somewhere else. Also, the stripe keeps it's angle relative to the plane at all photos, so it has to be ON the plane itself. Is that some kind of C-5 "livery" I missed? Or is it NOT C-5 at all?
I'm just curious ya kno? One of my personal goals was to capture an Il-76 in it's natural habitat, but C-5 would be even better Thanks in advance
