* Played with quite a bit in episode 12 of ''LightNovel/ThePetGirlOfSakurasou''. Mashiro gets an airplane flyby and DramaticWind shot while puzzling over her feelings for Sorata. But it isn't the usual symbolism, because it happens right after Sorata attempted a RaceForYourLove to the airport, only to discover that Mashiro wasn't actually leaving. In the same scene, Rita's plane flies into the distance while Ryuunosuke, to his own confusion, stays behind and thinks about his {{Tsundere}}-ish feelings for her.

Added DiffLines:

* Music/BlackCountryNewRoad has a sophisticated play on this throughout their album ''Ants From Up There'', where the "[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concorde Concorde]]" is a recurring [[ArcWords lyric]] and [[ArcSymbol overall thematic symbol]] (up to having a song named after it, and a Concorde airliner featuring on the album art). It's often used as a metaphor at face value to describe the beauty of romance, but it subtextually alludes to the "Concorde fallacy" of [[SunkCostFallacy investing in a passionate endeavor that you know whose viability has long since expired]], in turn highlighting how virtually all instances of love and passion in the album go unreturned or rejected.
