Planes / int_1282bf4f | comment |
No Celebrities Were Harmed: United States Navy version at work: The Jolly Wrenches are the Jolly Rogers, right down to the wall of prior fighter planes that served with the squadron in all its prior incarnations. The aircraft carrier Dwight D. Flysenhower is the Dwight D. Eisenhower but with the hull number changed from CVN-69 to CVN-81. | |

Darker and Edgier | |
Planes / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: Cars 1 was a very cheerful movie where the worst that happened to anyone was to get banged up during a race. Cars 2 upped the ante by showing guns, missiles and explosions, and at least one implied - but not directly shown - death. Planes got even darker, with a military confrontation resulting in several planes getting blown out of the sky or shot down in full flaming detail. | |

Does This Remind You of Anything? | |
Planes / int_14ed6ab7 | comment |
Does This Remind You of Anything?: Dusty gets into the race when one of the planes that timed better than him is found to have used an illegal formula in his fuel. Dusty has his sprayer removed to reduce his drag. While off-screen, we hear him yelp and complain about the cold tools and procedure, hoping it's reversible. He re-appears sprayer-less, complete with (rather Mickey Mouse sounding) Instant Soprano before he clears his throat. | |

The Cameo | |
Planes / int_1b65dfad | comment |
The Cameo: Brent Mustangburger from Cars 2 appears as the announcer for the race. Van (or his character model) can be spotted in the crowd of photographers. Also two of the Tokyo party chef forklifts from Cars 2 can be spotted during a montage. Despite not being a Pixar movie, John Ratzenberger voiced a one-scene cameo, Harland. Harland is a somewhat-ditzy Motor Mouth jet tug that Dusty asked the direction to the pit row, and he told Dusty the long and complicated description of the navigation until Tripp, the boeing plane he accompanied, told Dusty to just go straight ahead and to the right. | |

Palette Swap: Rochelle's Canadian paint scheme from the North American and British versions gets changed in most export versions along with her nationality and usually her name. She has completely different Australian, Brazilian, Chinese, German, Italian, Japanese and Russian color schemes, while the French version of Rochelle is essentially her default Canadian paint job with the maple leaves removed and a subtle hue shift to a more magenta base color. | |

Emergency Transformation: Dusty gets one after his near-fatal dive into the ocean. Most of the other racers pitch in by donating parts to allow Dusty to fly in the final leg of the race. Also doubles as an 11th-Hour Superpower, as most of Dusty's donated parts are far superior to what he was previously working with, including the ability to retract his landing gear to decrease drag. | |

Disqualification-Induced Victory: Dusty competes in a test race deciding which planes will get into the big "Wings Around the Globe" race.

He comes back home depressed, but a day or so later, a guy arrives to tell him that one of the winner planes was using an illegal fuel, and therefore Dusty got in after all. | |

Triumphant Reprise: The first time "Nothing Can Stop Me Now" is heard, it is during Dusty's daydream and sounds quite ironic, since he's afraid of heights. Then when he finally gets over his fear near the end, the song plays again in the end credits and becomes unironic, since there's literally nothing that can stop him. | |

Artistic License – Military | |
Planes / int_6eb4e408 | comment |
Artistic License – Military: Due to reusing assets, the fleet that Skipper and his squadron attempt to attack is composed entirely out of Yamato-class battleships, with at least six ships in the fleet. Only two Yamato class battleships had ever been build as battleships (with a third one converted to an aircraft carrier and two more cancelled), and at the time of the equivalent operation in real life, only one, Yamato, was in active commission, and even then Yamato was kept in drydocks during the real-life Guadalcanal campaign due to the uncharted seas and concerns over fuel and ammunition shortages. The reuse of assets also implies that Skipper was based on a carrier similar to the Flysenhower, whose class, the Nimitz-class would not be commissioned until 1975. Skipper himself is anachronistic to the campaign, as the first F4U Corsairs were not deployed until mid-Feb 1943, a few days after the Guadalcanal campaign ended, and the first F4U Corsair carrier wing did not operate until late 1943. The Nimitz-class carrier USS Dwight D. Flysenhower is given the designation CVN-81. The actual Nimitz-class designations only go up to 77, with CVN-78 and onwards given to the newer Gerald R. Ford-class carriers, with CVN-81 now given the name USS Doris Miller. | |

Strange Salute: Since they have no hands, the forklifts salute with their forks and the military planes salute by folding up their wingtips. Corsairs like Skipper and F-18 Super Hornets like Bravo and Echo can actually do this. It looks like the American Military Salute. | |

All Is Well That Ends Well: Not a single one of Dusty's fellow racers is bothered at all about the fact that they handed him the victory by giving him parts, making all of them finish one position back from where they would have if Dusty wouldn't have flown. Given that he earned earned the respect and friendship of a good many of them during the race, and that he helped dethrone a real Jerkass of a competitor and his lackeys, it's fairly understandable. | |

Villainous Breakdown: Because Ripslinger wants to become the first four-time champion of the Wings Around the Globe and gets upset when the attention of the press turns to Dusty. He really snaps when Dusty takes first place after Ishani's trick to get the crop duster killed by a train goes wrong. It's then when he decides to cheat during the race so that he can win. He gets worse after losing to Dusty and has to endure a Humiliation Conga. | |

Shout-Out | |
Planes / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: To two legendary United States fighter groups. Skipper's squadron, VF-17, a.k.a. "The Jolly Wrenches", is directly based on the real VF-17 squadron (Now VFA-103), "The Jolly Rogers". Judge Davis is explicitly mentioned to be a "Red Tail" P-51 Mustang, which makes him a member of the 332nd Fighter Group, better known as the Tuskegee Airmen, one of whom was Benjamin O. Davis, Jr., a pilot who ultimately became a United States Air Force General. Another is to Top Gun, when the two Navy jets do a flyby of the Flysenhower, disturbing the Air Boss's coffee. Made more of a shoutout by the identity of the actors voicing the two jets. In Skipper's World War II flashback, his squadron is using the callsign "Jigsaw", a reference to the old John Wayne movie Flying Leathernecks. Also the plane that gets disqualified at the beginning is called Fonzarelli, who used illegal fuel intake. | |

Secret Identity Vocal Shift: When flying car Franz powers up into his plane mode alter ego Von Fliegenhosen, his voice changes from high and nerdy to heroic and deep. | |

Coming in Hot | |
Planes / int_d074c3a2 | comment |
Coming in Hot: Dusty helps Bulldog pull out of his death dive, and then guides him to the runway. It costs him though in that he's dead last for the second leg in a row. At one point, Dusty gets lost over the Pacific ocean and has to land on a moving aircraft carrier. Their procedure on the ship follows the opening description of the trope almost verbatim. | |

What the Hell, Hero? | |
Planes / int_d39e327f | comment |
What the Hell, Hero?: Dusty chastises Ishani for setting him up for a loss and almost getting him killed when she tells him to take a dangerous shortcut. Dusty gives one to Skipper after finding out that Skipper lied to him about his war record. | |

Toilet Humor: At the end of the race, Ripslinger crashes into some portable toilets and oil is splattered all over. | |

Achilles' Heel | |
Planes / int_d7639dba | comment |
Ripslinger can be seen leaning slightly during the replays of his last three wins when Colin introduces him, foreshadowing Chug discovering Ripslinger's Achilles' Heel when crossing the finish line. | |

Male Gaze: Parodied when El Chu gets his first look at Rochelle. Dusty takes a long look at Ishani's rear propeller when he first meets her. | |

Dub Name Change | |
Planes / int_e2c4b927 | comment |
Dub Name Change: Repeatedly with Rochelle, accompanied by a Palette Swap each time. In the North American and U.K. versions she's Canadian with a Quebec accent and a Maple Leaf paint scheme, but most export releases change her nationality, paint scheme and usually name to suit the home audience. In the Australian and French versions she's still named Rochelle, but her name gets changed to Azzurra in Italian, Carolina in Latin American Spanish, Heidi in German, Sakura in Japanese, Tanya in Russian and Yun Yan Fei in Chinese. | |

Planes / int_eaf5a1ac | comment |
Dusty has his sprayer removed to reduce his drag. While off-screen, we hear him yelp and complain about the cold tools and procedure, hoping it's reversible. He re-appears sprayer-less, complete with (rather Mickey Mouse sounding) Instant Soprano before he clears his throat. | |

Product Placement | |
Planes / int_f511ea9b | comment |
Product Placement: Trippnote both a Punny Name and nod to Juan Trippe, the founder of Pan Am, an American Airlines 777 makes a cameo appearance and is featured in promotional materials. Probably one of the more not bad cases of product placement in recent memory since it works perfectly in the context of the movie's universe. Chug is shown reading a book called Air Racing for Dummies. Chug selling all the Dusty memoralia can be seen as in-universe parody of the trope. | |

Never Say "Die": Averted; Dusty believes "I'm dead!" when he ends up in Nepal following the near-collision with the train, and he tells Ishani she could've gotten him killed when calling her out. | |

Flight of Romance: Ishani takes Dusty on one to see the Taj Mahal. Subverted in that her real purpose is to tell him a "shortcut" that is supposed to put him behind, but nearly winds up killing him. | |
