The photo below was on eBay a couple of weeks ago. I suspected it to be fraudulent, so wanted to check it out first. There was a similar photo with a He177 carrying a winged fuel tank in flight which was an obvious fake. This was a well-known photo of a He177 in British markings with German markings artificially photoshopped over the British markings and the fake flying fuel tank added.

I am familiar with the Schleppgerät/Deichselschlepp additions tested with the Ar234 and Me262 and am aware that this photo is not one of those. I still suspect that this photo is a fake, but would appreciate comments/confirmation.
