Any thoughts on this?

I know how Twitter works, thank you. I always used the chronological feed using the All Tweets/Live section. I always found my tweets there until yesterday. Now timeline just skips my tweets.

Should we assume that what the photographer has seen was not correct?

Nothing has been found yet in thread to disprove photo.

In this post I explain why I think it could be, with some images and some explanations.

That doesn't look neither really like a Q, more like a scratched O. Look at left bottom and top side of letter Q. http://s21.postimg.org/yblu6kcqf/sc_o.jpg

Compare with zoomed Q from following photos: http://s30.postimg.org/jw64lrkzh/mrq_ams.png

MRQ was photographed just a few days before in Amsterdam (July 1 2015) and had the Q perfectly visible/full. http://www.airliners.net/photo/Malaysia-Airlines/Boeing-777-...

Photographed also a few days later (July 22 2015). Letter Q completely visible: http://www.airliners.net/photo/Malaysia-Airlines/Boeing-777-...

PlaneFinder (http://planefinder.net), when playing back to 10 July 2015 to show MH147 and MH146 flights shows: http://s16.postimg.org/596yg8j85/Cb8ad2x_Wo_AA4_Qo_Q_jpg_lar...

Time shown in photo is departure time so add that flight time and then convert to Melbourne time zone (add 10).

MH147 departure time shown by Planefinder = 12:34:02 UTC MH147 flight length = 7.45 hours MH147 arrived at 6.19am Melbourne time on July 10 2015.

MH146 departure time shown by Planefinder = 22:19:02 UTC MH146 flight length = 8:00 hours MH146 departed at 8.19am Melbourne time on July 10 2015.

Some EXIF fields included in photo: Shutter Count - 16834 (This field can't be modified by user as it is signed by Nikon on model D5100. It shows current image count. It follows other photos took by user in July 2015.). Date and Time (Original) in photo - 2015:07:10 09:42:20 Date and Time (Digitized) - 2015:07:10 09:42:20 Power Up Time - 2015:07:01 15:28:38

I asked author confirmation of what he saw (maybe he has other photos) and waiting for it. Flickr is currently following a case verifying the effective date/time of photo.

Again, flights made by 9M-MRQ that day are confirmed by libhomeradar.org. It explicitly talks of using UTC times. See “Contacted” column title. http://s17.postimg.org/fqlvgkisf/libhomeradar.png

Lastly, (http://acarsd.org), a website that aggregates ACARS contacts, http://www.acarsd.org/Fleetlist_MAS_Malaysia+Airlines.html, says that 9M-MRQ was flying MH147 on July 10 2015. http://s17.postimg.org/407xz6pzz/acarsd.png

This image shows what Melbourne airport structure is. http://static.crosstheditch.net/events//crosstheditch/spring...

Trying to visually place the photo in the map, I think the plane was: - on the runway so either landing or taking off. - oriented to left compared to terminal buildings that were behind on the right. - This means the plane was at least at 3/4 of runway 34. One of the planes in terminal has clearly light from sun coming from right from an angle similar to the one of sunset. 340 (runway orientation) - 298 (sun orientation at sunset) = 42 (angle between runway 34 and sun direction at sunset)

Notice how planes in terminal are not parked in same runway orientation but diagonally.

I attach link explaining what is Shutter Count and why it would be easy to detect if it has been changed. (Which is not)
