this is unquestionably a fake. a well done fake, but still a fake.
check out the shadow of the aircraft. it fits perfectly until the aircraft passes the camera. the shadow now falls too far behind the aircraft for the actual sun position.
also note that there is no dust or bushes moving from the large downwash.
the French are liars!

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.
