Plane crashes into tree

That's gotta be a prop, not a real crash at that location.
It is. Check out the accident report.

I did No accident for 3547R matches the picture.

His mechanic told him "bring it back if it isn't right".

I don't get it. Everybody here rants about the media when they jump to
conclusions and print stupid **** in the papers. Aren't we doing the same
thing here? Everybody's looking at a picture of an airplane in a tree and
assuming it's the airplane's fault. Hasn't it occurred to anybody that
this might have been one of those FAA-standard 50 foot trees that leap up
out of nowhere to catch unsuspecting airplanes (kind of like Charlie
Brown's kite-eating tree)?

The tree doesn't look to be 50 ft tall, but you definitely do have a
point... As a snow skier, I am well aquainted with the fact that there are
certain trees who take a perverse pleasure in jumping out in front of you
and attacking you... Hell, if you don't believe me, just ask Sonny Bono or
Michael Kennedy... Oh, wait a minute... You *can't* ask them since they
were stalked and eventually murdered by a tree... Of course, some
witnesses swear that there was a second tree at the snow-covered knoll
when Michael Kennedy was murdered

Of course, it wasn't truly Michael Kennedy's fault since he was given
skiing lessons by the same person who gave Teddy driving lessons...

Ever wonder how the military trains their pilots?
Here is clear example of a military style short field takeoff with 50ft
obstacle.

Nope. Those trees have been there a long time.

No, it hasn't. Look at the shadows.

And while I have not yet had a chance to talk to a 737 pilot, I did have
a chat with a 757 pilot yesterday and asked him how long a 757 would
remain stable with the autopilot off. He looked at me like I was crazy
for asking the question (and rightly so) and said "not very long."

I am. The drop shadow behind the sign has been very amateurishly
executed.

How long is "not very long"?

Uh, Ron, Mx is right, it's a infamously Photoshopped picture. As
others have pointed out, the airplane in the side of the building is
really held up by lots of wires, and has no "Learn to Fly Here" sign.
