    An aerial photograph taken from inside a commercial aircraft showing the wing and a distant aerial display below. Multiple smoke trails from aerobatic aircraft are visible in the middle distance, forming looping and curved patterns over a densely forested suburban landscape. The scene suggests an airshow is taking place at a lower altitude while the photographing aircraft is at cruising or approach altitude.
