- Comment – Composition seems predictable and rather static. Lighting on wing isn't great. – Sca (talk) 13:41, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose - JPEG artifacts, easily replicable. MER-C 17:20, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose - Just a snaphot, no pizzazz... --Janke | Talk 15:18, 8 February 2021 (UTC)
- Janke, I don't understand... don't snapshots have the opportunity to show some pizzazz, and to be valid FPCs? I think that this picture represents aviation broadly: a silent, calming field of open skies to explore. Sure it's something everyone can take, but... isn't that what all pics have in common?
