1. contrast, soft/heat haze
2. contrast, soft
3. contrast
4. centering, contrast, soft/heat haze
5. centering, contrast, soft

#2 is the only one that appears possibly fixable; the rest I would not bother with.

Better?

The BA A319 look OK now IMO.

Brilliant thank you once again LX and Dlowwa, couldn't do any of this without your help.

1 looks slightly blurry (titles, nose)

4 angle OK, but the chopped off stab looks too weird.

All sharpened further

New shot, not sure if its acceptable due to the angle.

Another shot here, not sure if should just be thrown away

Also a bit soft.

Exposure acceptable for me. Softness issue remains.

Think this is much better in terms of brightness, I've redone the histogram and set the white point.

Same as above

Both still likely soft rejections, and possibly dark as well.

You could do localized sharpening on the tail, but not sure how much that will help, as I bet it was just really soft/blurry to start.

Yes, 'dark' implies a lack of brightness/exposure.

2. Is that to do with brightness?
