Mount Fuji flight formation[edit]

A flight formation of historical and current planes by the United States Navy, passing by Mount Fuji in Japan.

The formation includes aircraft previously flown and also currently flown by the United States Navy. It is like a small sample of Navy aircraft all in the same place, flying side by side, next to the beauty that is Fuji-sama. I know it is not used in articles, but I want to see if this is even worth it. User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 07:22, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • It's somewhat noisy and not very sharp, which will hurt its chances. But it is a good example of formation flying and shows the array of planes available to a modern aircraft carrier. You might see how it compares to other pictures of formation flying and naval aviation. Fletcher (talk) 13:39, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • Do you think editing could help it's chances? User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 16:07, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • I don't find noise or sharpness particularly objectionable, given the size. Thegreenj 00:38, 2 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • The photo could use some more space in front of and behind the planes. Wronkiew (talk) 05:35, 2 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • It's not exactly the kind of picture that one can ask for a reshoot. If Thegreenj isn't too bothered by the noise/sharpness then maybe it's worth a go, it's just that they people are very picky on FPC. I agree it's not that bad... maybe some noise reduction would help if it could be done without reducing sharpness to much. It's certainly a rare find which should help.
