Default media misunderstanding of aviation isn't limited to the US

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/4660644.stm

This was on the front page of news.bbc.co.uk today. While the article
does give quotes from officials stating that the photo is an illusion,
the implication of the writer seems to be that the officials aren't
being entirely truthful. Just look at the sub-headline: "Officials have
denied any breach of safety after two planes were pictured apparently
flying perilously close together over east London."
