Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Metajets is a Korean-Canadian action cartoon created by Peter M. Lenkov and David Wolkove and produced by Cookie Jar Entertainment and Sunwoo Entertainment for Teletoon. It ran for a single season of 40 episodes and also appeared on Cartoon Network in the United States as one of numerous Canadian imports present on the channel during the late 2000s and early 2010s.In 2067, ten years after the Black Cloud war, the world's most powerful cities have been sent to the skies. When the world is in danger, four young Ace Pilots competing in the A.R.C. (Aeronautical Racing Circuit), become the elite flying team known as the Metajets. Under the command of Captain George Strong, chairman of the A.R.C., the pilots work in secret, transforming their race jets into battle jets.The four pilots consist of:Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) Johnny Miller, codename Ace, the Rookie Red Ranger pilot. Formerly a farm boy from Oklahoma, Johnny is investigating the death/disappearance of his father, a former Metajets pilot. Less than subtly implied to have a crush on Maggie. Trey Jordan, codename Burner, the field leader of the Metajets. While he's the most competitive and successful A.R.C. racer of the four, when it comes to Metajets business, he's strictly professional. Maggie Strong, codename Foxtrot, the daughter of Captain Strong and the only female Metajets pilot. She is level-headed and often the voice of reason amongst the team. Although she has a no-dating-teammates rule, it's subtly implied that she has a crush on Johnny. Zachary "Zak" Kim, codename Vector, the overlooked pilot who is the youngest member of the Metajets team. A Gadgeteer Genius, Zak loves music and video games and cannot fly without the former.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })The biggest threat to the Metajets pilots is the re-surging Black Cloud organization led by General Raven. | |

Hidden Agenda Villain | |
| Metajets / int_161fa3b8 | comment |
Hidden Agenda Villain: Griffin Hawksmore could be one of these judging from his actions in "The Fortress" and "The Stunt-Hawks." In "The Fortress," he tricked Metajets and Black Cloud into testing his floating fortress's security system so his new fortress wouldn't have any security flaws. He also turned out to be the creator of the Stunt-Hawks' jets in "The Stunt-Hawks." | |

| Metajets / int_20e6a6e7 | comment |
In "Eye of the Swarm", Vector manages to wipe out the swarm of robotic locusts with a magnetic attack. Since the robots adapt to any attack that's been used on them before, he had to take out all of them in one shot. And it seemed that he had. Until the final scene, when General Raven reveals that he kept a few in reserve. | |

The Bad Guy Wins: Captain Strong interprets the end of "End of the Line" this way. Metajets did rescue the fusion-powered train's crew and passengers from an explosive death, but the train project has been put on indefinite hold, which was Black Cloud's goal from the start. "The Fortress" has Griffin Hawksmore succeeding in tricking Metajets and Black Cloud into testing his fortress's security system, allowing him to develop an improved version for his new fortress. Why he did all this is unknown. | |

Paper-Thin Disguise | |
| Metajets / int_48b9731f | comment |
Paper-Thin Disguise: The heroes' metagear aren't exactly the greatest disguises ever conceived, but the jets themselves are the real problem. Nobody notices that they have the exact same color schemes as four of the top A.R.C. pilots' racing jets? Really? Not even General Raven, who used to be a member of Metajets, at the same time as Johnny's father, who flew the exact same jet that Johnny does now? The fact that music-obsessed Zak's jet uses sound-based weapons in its combat form doesn't exactly help either. In "Escape from the Outback", Maggie dresses up in Trey's clothes (as he and Johnny broke protocol to rescue the former's parents) and Captain Strong comes in on "him" fixing his jet. She does a good job of just grunting and not actually trying to speak, but she gives a thumbs up at one point. Apparently, Captain Strong didn't notice that "Trey" was now white. This is subverted, however, when Captain Strong finds out what happened at the end of the episode when he is given a satellite photo of Trey and Johnny. He destroyed the photo after looking at it. | |

Disproportionate Retribution | |
| Metajets / int_50b05d30 | comment |
Disproportionate Retribution: Flygirl's actions in "Grounded!" can be seen as this. She frames Maggie by making look like that Maggie had used live ammunition to kill fellow A.R.C. pilot Drew Dyson during a race, which could've ruined Maggie's racing career and gotten her prison time. The reason? Maggie had punched Flygirl during her escape from Black Cloud's airship in "Opening Day". As a result, Flygirl got in trouble with General Raven. Part of General Raven's motivation is getting revenge for being drummed out of the A.R.C. and Metajets by Captain Strong 10 years ago. In "Boiling Point", he decides to mark the anniversary of his removal by causing all of the volcanoes on Hawaii to simultaneously erupt, wiping out the whole island, just because there's an A.R.C. race happening there at the time. Carmone Fontaine, the crime boss doing business with Black Cloud in "One of the Family." Angry over Johnny not throwing the race in favor of his son Doug, he sics a heavily armed automated airship on the stadium in order to kill Johnny's aunt. General Raven, of all people, calls him out on this, and immediately cancels their alliance, because he refuses to work with anyone who'd waste such a powerful weapon on such a minor task. In "Vanishing Point," General Raven sends out an entire armada to destroy an island to kill one scientist for betraying him. | |

Ace and Crusher are forced to work together when they're stranded on the titular island in order to take down the titular doctor. In "Lady in Red," Ace and Viper team up to take on the Scarlet Circle before returning to shooting at each other. | |

Why Did It Have to Be Snakes? | |
| Metajets / int_5beef860 | comment |
Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: General Raven is the leader of the evil Black Cloud and spends most of his time in their airship, yet he is shown to be so afraid to fly jets that he chokes any time he gets in a cockpit. Even in simulators. It seems he's gotten over it after Viper's Starscream moment in "Self-Destruct, Part 2" failed. "The Phantom Fleet" reveals that Trey has a fear of ghosts. The other pilots (especially Zak) couldn't resist making fun of Trey after finding out. | |

The End... Or Is It? | |
| Metajets / int_9e86e227 | comment |
The End... Or Is It?: The ending of "Under the Ice". After Vector says nobody will be seeing the energy-absorbing creature again, the scene immediate shifts to the creature, its energy glow getting brighter as it draws power from a nuclear reactor despite now being miles away from it. In "Eye of the Swarm", Vector manages to wipe out the swarm of robotic locusts with a magnetic attack. Since the robots adapt to any attack that's been used on them before, he had to take out all of them in one shot. And it seemed that he had. Until the final scene, when General Raven reveals that he kept a few in reserve. | |

Status Quo Is God: In "The Island of Dr. Nova", Ace seems to be on the verge of convincing Crusher to make a Heel–Face Turn. A series of plot contrivances at the end of the episode leave Crusher with the false impression that Ace betrayed him, erasing all the good will that had been built up during their team-up. | |

Everyone Has Standards | |
| Metajets / int_b4a6ae4c | comment |
Everyone Has Standards: Razor in "Razor's Edge" draws the line at killing innocent people while trying to force London to grow skyward. He abandons this viewpoint in "Attack of the Drones." Carmone Fontaine had a unique device that could shut down any and all electronics at the touch of a button. Despite being an international crime lord, he only used it on a small scale to escape the police, because at full power it was far too dangerous even for him. He approves of Ace destroying it with a good old fashioned kick. | |

Carmone Fontaine, the crime boss doing business with Black Cloud in "One of the Family." Angry over Johnny not throwing the race in favor of his son Doug, he sics a heavily armed automated airship on the stadium in order to kill Johnny's aunt. General Raven, of all people, calls him out on this, and immediately cancels their alliance, because he refuses to work with anyone who'd waste such a powerful weapon on such a minor task. | |

General Raven is the leader of the evil Black Cloud and spends most of his time in their airship, yet he is shown to be so afraid to fly jets that he chokes any time he gets in a cockpit. Even in simulators. It seems he's gotten over it after Viper's Starscream moment in "Self-Destruct, Part 2" failed. | |

Well-Intentioned Extremist: Razor in "Razor's Edge."

In "Attack of the Drones," with Razor as their leader again, they take control of Black Cloud's drone jets with a computer virus in order to conduct a kamikaze attack on the wall. | |
