[edit] Bell X-2 crash landing
This picture is used at the start of the Bell X-2 article where I believe it serves to really grab the readers attention. Additionally the look on the face of the gentleman who is looking at the camera is priceless. - Triddle 01:51, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)

- weak oppose WHile it add significantly, I can't say I find it too good or interesting. Circeus 16:22, Apr 22, 2005 (UTC)
- Oppose. I can stare for long times at photographs of fascinating vessels like this one. Nevertheless, I don't find it appropriate to be a FP. Jonas Olson 18:57, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Support, I'll be a contrarian. I like the high quality of the image, the long crash track in the dirt and the nice shadows. Leonardo 22:46, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Oppose. Not interesting. Enochlau 23:50, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Support. Incredibly illustrative and dramatic. Matthewcieplak 03:19, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Oppose It lacks that fundamental spark that captures my attention, and the colors seem a bit to light. TomStar81 07:16, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Support. The arrangement of figures, the contrast of dark and light, and the placement of shadows--all artistic yet unplanned--make this a fascinating pic. In addition, it is the snapshot of a moment in history. The picture has a surreal quality. - Pioneer-12 18:48, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)

- Support. Srtiking, adds significantly to the article. --Andrew 16:40, Apr 26, 2005 (UTC)
- Neutral. I kind of like this crash, but it is a bit small and doesn't have good source and copyright info. -- Solipsist 20:53, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- What do you think of this one or this one from NASA's Controlled Impact Demonstration? Triddle 01:58, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)

- Oppose - I prefer the NASA crash image above. Janderk 19:50, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Support. Less fire than in the NASA crash image above, but more suggestive and historically more significant. --Bernard Helmstetter 14:26, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Support The men are a bit dark, but it's certainly strinking. Junes 10:55, 2 May 2005 (UTC)
