Sorry about your crash, but that doesn't look like a piece of stationery.

Like it but needs either more motion blur or none. As is tends to look more oof than blurred.

Good capture of an object in motion - I imagine this must have taken several attempts to get. Too bad you couldn't shoot a bit faster and eliminate that motion blur.

I like your take on this challenge; however, I would have liked the whole airplane in focus. The composition draws my eye to the tip of the plane, which is in focus but the colors on the wings draws my eyes back to the out of focus area.

This picture would be stronger if the lighting was strong enough for a faster shutter speed, or if you used flash. Motion blur is a cool effect, but I don't think it's very appealing hear.
