Are you sure it is cropped, the fuel dump is directly between the engines?
They could use afterburners to ignite the fuel as it is pumped out.

Seeing Glenn took the picture, I'm pretty sure he's sure it's cropped.

Yep. Last time I did any real photography work, cropping an Image
didn't change anything on an object ;-)

The commentator at the Richmond Airshow put the fuel consumption of this
action into laymen's terms when he said this was the equivalent of X number
of beer cartons being consumed per second.

Sorry, I can't recall the exact number. But I guess a few second worth would
keep you in beer for some time!

BTW Thanks for the great shots Glenn! there all much better that my own.
Although you can't expect to much from the 3 x zoom on my Canon

I recall the old RAAF Mirage simulator (analog and ancient by todays
standards), it used to give a click for every imperial gallon of fuel
consumed (4.5L). At cruise it clicked at a rate of roughly one gallon per
second. On after burner it sped up enormously. Now that was a single engine
jet, now a big Pig with two (albeit modern) engines doing a dump and burn
must be literally roaring through the fuel.

For one thing, the engines aren't that modern; they're essentially '60's
technology. Also, don't forget that the fuel capacity of the Aardvark is
much higher per unit of thrust than the Mirage - it's designed for
long-range bombing, not short-range fighting.
