ProhibitedContent

This page lists the various types of flying machines that do not meet the criteria for inclusion in this wiki. I will list examples under the appropriate heading.

Prohibition categories[]

Spacecraft[]

This means any machine designed to travel through space, for example:

  • Shuttlecraft from any sci-fi films/tv shows
  • Space fighters (These can be found on the Snubfighter Wiki)[N 1]
  • X-71 Shuttle (Armageddon).
  • Demeter City Police Department Squad Vehicles {Space Precinct)

Aerospaceplanes[]

This covers atmospheric machines with some capability for space travel, for example:

  • X-302/F-302 (Stargate Franchise).
  • Incom T-16 Skyhopper (Star Wars).

Flying cars[]

Basically any land vehicle designed or modified with flight capability, for example:

  • Hover mode Delorean Time Machine (Back to the Future trilogy).
  • Supercar.
  • Mac's car (Joe 90).

Real world aircraft with fictional designations[]

  • 'MiG 28' (F-5 - Top Gun/F-16 - Supercarrier).
  • 'Oscar EW 5894 Phallus' Tactical Fighter Bomber (Folland Gnat[N 2] - Hot Shots!)

Real world aircraft with forged designations[]

This refers to real aircraft that use the name/designation of another - usually completely different - aircraft for their film/TV appearance, for example:

  • 'Me 263' (actually a Scaled Composites ARES - Aces: Iron Eagle III).

Flying machines that only appear in other media[]

This category is for machines that only appear in reference material and books (including comics and graphic novels).[N 3]

  • Talon 1 Combat cloud car (Star Wars Expanded Universe)
  • XF-34 Dreamstar (Day of the Cheetah).

Rejected designs[]

This covers designs that were developed for a film/TV show/video game, but not included in the final version, for example:

  • He 155 V3 (intended for the island sequence in Raiders of the Lost Ark).

References[]

Notes[]

  1. One exception is the open cockpit Death Glider variant, the Udajeet.
  2. One example in the carrier deck scenes is actually a single seat example, built under licence in India as the HF-24 Ajeet.
  3. Items in this category may become suitable for inclusion, if the source material is adapted into a film/TV drama series/video game, and then only if the design is not represented by a real world aircraft.
