Original – Runway 20L John Wayne Airport
Reason
This runway was know as 19L for almost 20 years. The polar shift caused the FAA to renumber it to align the runway in late 2014 to 20L. This is the shorter of two runways next to each other that caters to smaller private and charter aircraft

  • Support as nominatortalk→ WPPilot  05:48, 12 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Off center and blurry at full size, but good angle anyway. Brandmeistertalk 20:08, 12 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I could crop it square, but I left that short section on the right to show the right runway., as the the blurry comment, remember the camera is traveling at about 75mph directly at the subject, so a number of limitations (i.e. you cant setup your tripod on a skyhook) keep the amount of aperture and shutter speed, at minimums. talk→ WPPilot  01:40, 13 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose as above, it is blurry, but also I'm not sure I can see the EV. It's supposed to be of John Wayne Airport, but only shows a single runway. Mattximus (talk) 22:07, 12 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Please note Mattximus the nom isn't for the airport, it's specifically just for the runway... Although I really appreciate the effort and limitations caused by this type of photography, I also sadly cannot support due to the level of blur... Just too much detail lost... Cool picture though, excellent attempt... Oppose sorry... gazhiley 13:49, 13 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose It's so crucial to have a runway centered in such a photograph. Étienne Dolet (talk) 08:42, 14 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
