- Reason
- Pictured here is a Sikorsky MH-53 Pave Low helicopter of the 20th Special Operations Squadron on maneuvers stateside. Its an interesting image of a now retired heavy lift helicopter, and its reasonably large enough that I figured to give it a shot here at FPC for a star.

- ...yeah. Like I said, reasonably large enough, but there is room for improvement (lol; sorry, couldn't type that with a straight face :-) TomStar81 (Talk) 03:37, 2 August 2015 (UTC)
- Comment – IMO, all helicopters are ugly. Sca (talk) 20:24, 2 August 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose Blades cut off, but also focus very soft on front of the beautiful machine... :P Oh and well below minimum spec?! gazhiley 09:56, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose Below 1500*1500 in size. Alborzagros (talk) 10:31, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
- As a techincal note to those voting, its not strictly true that the image is below the 1500x1500 mandate, as one side clocks in at a little over 1700px, so its only short on the one side, and then not by that much. Still though, below minimum is below minimum.
- Oppose Too small, blurry. Yann (talk) 11:34, 6 August 2015 (UTC)
