I had a photo of A320 reg. 9V-JSB rejected due to "Cropping / Photo edges / Size Ratio".

I edited the photo and uploaded it again one hour ago, using Autofill as usual. Then I was very surprised because THIS TIME the aircraft with reg. 9V-JSB was as an Airbus A340-313X of Singapore Airlines.

I think I can correct manually, but I would like to know the reason of the problem.

Thanks

Recycled reg.... 9V-SJB was indeed worn by a SQ A340. Since the only two photos of that reg in the DB are the SQ bird, that comes up first. Once your photo is screened and accepted, the autofill will default to the most recent shot (yours) data.

The Singapore A340 was 9V-SJB
The Jetstar A320 is 9V-JSB
You have the registration wrong!

I have seen numerous regs being recycled within the company itself, take SQ as an example. I still haven't seen a recycled reg going touseide the company, given to "someone else" Not that it's not possible though.
