Is there a copyright notice on the page of the web site on which your
picture was published? If not, why not? If so, you may be eligible
for a little royalty (or tort compensation) income. :-)

The copyright belongs to the photographer. If the image is used
commercially, the owner of the aircraft usually has to sign a release
(editorial use does not require this, in the U.S.).
