Misleading[edit]

This is a pretty misleading image. The creator of this picture has basically taken a photo of the model that's shown in this video and photoshopped it into a sky-and-horizon image. The problem with that: The model includes cut-away openings. These are present in the model to show the innards of the vehicle, and that's fine. But by photoshopping a picture of that model with its cut-aways into a sky image, the creator has crafted an image that looks absolutely nothing like what the actual plane would really look like in flight. So it's very misleading. For a more accurate impression of what the plane would likely look like, see this video (that video however also includes some transparent/cut-away views at times).

For the aforementioned reasons, I don't think this image should really be used in an encyclopedia. Yes, it does look artistically appealing – it has an eye-candy quality to it, but it does not convey accurate information very well; it gives people completely the wrong idea about what the plane would look like.. 31.18.248.254 (talk) 02:04, 22 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
