puppyz:

i agree with your first sentence. the oddity is when the plane passes to the right, and the shadow drops behind the aircraft. the sun stays put, so the shadow should always be to the right from our viewing perspective. notice how it is distinctly closer to us, the viewer, as the aircraft passes to the right. no matter what the aircraft's altitude, the shadow should always be in the same position relative to the plane. by this measure, the video is bogus in my opinion.
