The picture on Just Plane Wrong is, as near as I can tell, two planes (or perhaps it's a space shuttle and a missile) and is labeled "Concorde, X-15, what's the difference?" To be frank, I have no idea. I suppose one of them is the concorde and the other is the X-15, but which is which, and how exactly is that this trope? Perhaps this image makes perfect sense if you're an expert on airplane design, but to the average reader this image just doesn't make any sense.

Now the trope is basically Artistic License - Airplanes, so this image would be a better illustration.

Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!

The current is not the Concorde and an X-15. It's the X-15. 1) The Concorde is a passenger jet. 2. very distinctive in appearance and nothing at all like the X-15, 3. Your suggestion is watermarked and cannot be used and 4. Your suggestion is also not the trope. It's a cartoon plane, not the wrong plane.

Your grounds for replacing the image is basically "I don' get it." and your suggestion is no better than the current one.

Declining to open.
