Sometimes. Only if the scenery surrounding it is detailed enough.

Off center gives a sense of direction. Gives a feel of where the aircraft will go. ;)

Agreed. Or to show depth and height, and indeed distance and scale!

Depends what is filling up the rest of the shot, if it is nothing but blue sky then no, but if there is scenery then its a yes :P

I'll have to say yes, on nearly all occasions; even if there is only sky in the background of a shot a creative, off-center angle on a shot can totally transform what would normally be an average shot, but also off-center shots can show detailing of scenery, clouds, and also utilise the lighting in the shot!

(Hmm, maybe I went into too much detail ;D)
