Can anyone tell me a bit more about this pie chaser?

Well, the one digit of the tail number is distorted, but putting
"5725Z" into the FAA database:

http://registry.faa.gov/aircraftinqu...um_inquiry.asp

You see it's a Piper PA-22-108, a single engine aircraft.

If you put in "5728Z", there's no such number registered.

So, yeah, my money's on Photoshop. It looks like the plane's engine
was simply copied twice, the angle and lighting on the cowling & prop
is identical. You can also see that the plane's shadow doesn't show
any sign of the two wing-mounted engines.
