Indeed, the contrast is terrible and they would be rejected for that, as well as for being soft, dirty, noisy, and poorly centered (1st).
Forecast is for sunny skies tomorrow morning so hopefully will have some time to try out some improvements and have better contrast!
Thanks for taking the time!

Dirty means there are dust spots from the sensor. Equalizing in your editing software will enable you to see them more clearly. Noisy is too much grain. Possibly due to heavy crop, heavy exposure adjustment, or a wide variety of reasons. ISO 125 shouldn't cause a ton of noise straight out of the camera.

Thanks again for your continued help everyone!
You will be unable to remove the first one since it is actually on the aircraft, but the quality is so poor it's unlikely the image would have ever been accepted anyway.

Can a screener take a look at the following below? I hopefully improved from my last batch!
Thank you so much,

Originally posted by dlowwa View PostPossibly, but these are not borderline, so a large improvement will be needed.
This was shot at 1/640, f6.3 so maybe I'm gaining some softness by not having fast enough shutter speed. If they are fairly far off then most likely something has to change in my camera/lens settings or technique.
This one was cropped down a bit so that could explain it.

Thanks again for being so helpful! May just need to start from scratch again.
