Not working

Am I theone who cannot see this image in its entirety when I click it and maximize the image? My browser wont scroll down and let me see the bottom portion of the image. I'm using Google Chrome 1.0.154.48 --24.254.194.26 (talk) 04:30, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

Works for me, Firefox3.0.6 no access to chrome to check. Perhaps try it in Safari or Iexplore just to check?--King0lag (talk) 21:58, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

Chrome has trouble with .svg format (as does windows picture manager). Why is wikipedia using these strange formats anyway? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.251.77.44 (talk) 00:03, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

SVG has been in use since 1999, I'd find it hard to expect Wikipedia to change formats for a browser that can't handle something from the W3C over 10 years old! I'm also fairly sure there are no other free, open source vector formats for the web as of the current date :P --King0lag (talk) 05:17, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

This illustration just seems silly. The way the colors combine, it's not really helping me see tell how any two of the planes compare, especially in the plan view. Which of those noses belongs to the 747? dmountain (talk) 04:15, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

This image is imcomplete. It is missing the Hidenberg, which is the biggest aircraft ever built or flown. This should be included in this image to allow one to make a comparison between large modern aircraft and those in use in the past (for example the Spruce Goose, which is included within the image).

Paul Allen's giant satellite launch plane, called Stratolaunch

New photos reveal mammoth structure of Paul Allen’s six-engine Stratolaunch AJRG (talk) 10:56, 26 February 2015 (UTC)

Antonov is missing

Just a detail, but is there a reason why the manufacturer (Antonov) is omitted from the An-225 captions? —Cloverleaf II (talk) 15:11, 28 November 2015 (UTC)

Adding stratolaunch

Hello, I've added Stratolauch to the scheme, though I am not able to add it directly here, so I added it with alternative name:

Comparison of giat planes: Antonov An-225 Mriya, Stratolaunch, Hughes H-4. Airbust A380, Boeing 747-8

Whenever my account will be activated, I will fix that and update the original scheme.

P.S. These days (end of May, beginning of June, 2019) there are many talks about Stratolaunch in media, mostly because of Paul Allen deciding to close the company. To allow people to more easily check the claims of Stratolaunch being "the biggest plane in the world" I decided to add it to this excellent scheme.

The sources for the data and true scales were taken from https://www.stratolaunch.com/how-we-launch/ and first image from https://www.spaceflightinsider.com/missions/commercial/stratolaunch-aircraft-makes-1st-flight/. The claims on official website and internet in general, that the tail height is 15m from ground are completely wrong, if everything done in scale from photo images comparing the length, wings span (thats what I did), the true height of the tail from the ground is about 16.5m, 15m is actual physical size of the tale.

P.S.P.S. Activation completed, new file added. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nuccy (talk • contribs) 14:07, 1 June 2019 (UTC)
