Regardless of mirrored or not, the camera can't make a radar pod appear on the wrong wing.

But when you use the front camera of an iPhone it reverses the image. I have seen this many times. So its possible this was a legit photo.
Mike Nope, if you went and found him on social media. It was the same picture of him in the right seat. He just reversed to put as his profile picture. I think we even found the N number send it was a charter aircraft. Straight up BS.

What the hell are you guys on about? He posted that picture (not reversed), saying he had some right seat time, and did not claim to own a PC-12. Jeff Wright reversed it to deride him. I think you guys got the trolling and counter trolling all mixed up. And no, the front facing camera of an iPhone doesn't reverse images. (They did about 8 years ago.)

Yeah, I was kidding around and dug up an old photo.
There's another guy, Chris Close, who apparently claims to be an owner/PIC of a PC-12, which I suppose is his profile picture. That photo was reversed, for whatever reason. Apparently the aircraft is a charter aircraft.
Chris Close also seems to like the idea of polar coordinates, despite a tenuous grasp on what that is.
Jeff and I were just having fun with it.
Cheers,
Smith

Well, new video. The plastic piece didn’t work. The TLAR method failed again. I hear the shocked gasps through out the internet. Pete chalks it up to basically “$£¥t happens when you’re building a prototype”. It seems to happen more often when you don’t do even 5 minutes of research to find a spec sheet for the material you want to use.
