Oppose -- Too tight crop, excessive distortion, poor image quality. Alvesgaspar (talk) 14:10, 20 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support -- High quality and high EV, nice surroundings that perfecttly illustrate the subject. A wider crop would IMHO include too much of the airport surroundings.--FAEP (talk) 15:18, 20 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Qualified support — It's a competent image of what I suppose remains the world's largest passenger plane, and I don't think the crop is too tight for such a large symmetrical object, but the old journalist in me has to wonder why we're featuring a 4-year-old posed pic. of a plane in wide service today.

Oppose I agree that the distortion here limits the EV to below FP standards, especially given that this is a fairly easy to reproduce shot. Nick-D (talk) 23:47, 20 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
