The perfect angle for this shot

How did he get all the windows to line up at the same time, feels unreal in some ways.

I took the picture from about 500 meters away. If you look closely, you can see that the windows at the front and back of the plane aren't lined up perfectly because perspective is a thing.

I happen to know a spot that lines up pretty well with planes landing on that particular runway. Then it's just a matter of spamming the shutter until one of the shots comes out like this.

Oh yeah, I could see the signs of a real picture but they are so subtle that it "feels" unreal. Great shot by the way.
