* ArtisticLicenseMilitary: Due to reusing assets, the [[spoiler:fleet that Skipper and his squadron attempt to attack]] is composed entirely out of ''Yamato''-class battleships, with at least six ships in the fleet. Only two Yamato class battleships had ever been build as battleships (with a third one converted to an aircraft carrier and two more cancelled), and at the time of the equivalent operation in real life, only one, ''Yamato'', was in active commission, and even then ''Yamato'' was kept in drydocks during the real-life Guadalcanal campaign due to the uncharted seas and concerns over fuel and ammunition shortages.

** Skipper himself is anachronistic to the campaign, as the first F4U Corsairs were not deployed until mid-Feb 1943, a few days after the Guadalcanal campaign ended, and the first F4U Corsair carrier wing did not operate until late 1943.

* CluelessAesop: The movie falls into the same trap as ''WesternAnimation/TheEmojiMovie'' by having the main character [[BeYourself embrace who he truly wants to be]] in a world of anthropomorphized vehicles, where everyone is created for a very specific purpose.

** The reuse of assets also implies that Skipper was based on a carrier similar to the ''Flysenhower'', whose class, the ''Nimitz''-class would not be commissioned until 1975.
** Skipper himself is anachronistic to the campaign, as the first F4U Corsairs were not deployed until mid-Feb 1943, a few days after the Guadalcanal campaign ended, and the first F4U Corsair carrier wing did not operate until late 1943.
** The ''Nimitz''-class carrier USS ''Dwight D. Flysenhower'' is given the designation CVN-81. The actual ''Nimitz''-class designations only go up to 77, with CVN-78 and onwards given to the newer ''Gerald R. Ford''-class carriers, with CVN-81 now given the name USS ''Doris Miller''.

* DickDastardlyStopsToCheat: Ripslinger stops to teach Dusty a lesson on the final leg. By how close it ends up at the end, those few seconds could have won in the race fairly.

* DickDastardlyStopsToCheat: In the final race, Ripslinger stops and his lackeys try to teach knock Dusty a lesson on out of the final leg. By how close it ends up at the end, those few seconds race in an area with no cameras, only to be foiled when Skipper flies in. Given that Ripslinger is demonstrably faster than Dusty, he could have won in the race fairly.fairly if he had simply kept flying.

Probably one of the more [[Administrivia/TropesAreTools not bad]] cases of product placement in recent memory since it works perfectly in the context of the movie's universe.

* EpicFail: While Dusty and Chug are watching the news about the "Wings Around the Globe" Ralley, the show takes time to show off clips of the top 10 plane crashes. Number 10 features a series of racing planes taking off from an elevated platform, with a blue plane being last in line failing to take off, instead nosediving straight into the ground. [[LampshadeHanging Chug even wonders aloud how that happened.]]

* DubNameChange: Repeatedly with Rochelle, accompanied by a PaletteSwap each time. In the North American and U.K. versions she's Canadian with a Quebec accent and a Maple Leaf paint scheme, but most export releases change her nationality, paint scheme and usually name to suit the home audience. In the Australian and French versions she's still named Rochelle, but her name gets changed to Azzurra in Italy, Carolina in Latin America, Heidi in Germany, Sakura in Japan, Tanya in Russia and Yun Yan Fei in China.
