Anyone else notice them this year? Is the TV crew messing with viewers? Emirates marketing?

Maybe its a camera on a line above the arena? Just shaped like a plane?

I thought it was a subtle dig at the people on this site for having fricked up teeth. I gave you too much credit

This is it You can clearly see the shadow of the cable it is running on. My guess is the camera is sponsored by an airline company.

The wire camera at Roland Garros, which spans the width of the court, has a model plane affixed to it as an Emirates Airlines advertisement. When it slides forward and the sun is overhead, the shadow of the plane goes forward. When the camera slides backward, the shadow of the plane goes backward. It's not flying. It's not a mystery. It's just brands. Nothing is ever fun or exciting.

It's either a camera on wires or a balloon shaped like a plane on a cord.
You can see the shadow of the cord/wire also.

I saw the plane 3 hours ago. That link above with an explanation was posted only two hours ago. I should have re-googled, but didn't. I was busy looking up other shiet.
