  • Oppose; the composition looks cramped, the background a bit distracting and the resolution/detail is not the best. Compare with File:Supermarine_Spitfire_Mk_XVI_NR.jpg for example. --KFP (contact | edits) 21:16, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose The building in the background is distracting and the EV isn't strong enough to counteract this. Nick-D (talk) 11:59, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose -- The poor thing looks caged! -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 20:15, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support A decent picture of a plane. It does look caged, but it's not meant to be a huge action shot, it's meant to draw our attention to the plane itself. Aaadddaaammm (talk) 19:17, 16 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
