[edit] The first image

The first image on the page is definitely NOT an F-84G (the Edwards AFB page from which it came is in error). The F-84G had a multi-framed canopy -- I can't see the tail number in the photo but it's probably an F-84E. - Emt147 ^Burninate! 23:20, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Assessment

I have classified this as B for WP:MILHIST, as this project has it's own independent A-class review. Before submitting it, I would suggest the addition of citations to some sections, especially "development" and 'Korean War". Carom 16:04, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the comments. This is among several articles I'm trying to bring up to FA level. The text is verified but I need to go back and add the actual citations. - Emt147 ^Burninate! 03:16, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] pressed-forged spars and ribs

I believe the giant press used to make the spars and ribs for the F-84F's wings was made by the (defunct)Mesta machine tool company, based just outside of Pittsburgh, PA. 152.163.100.131 09:40, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cite tags

Just so no-one freaks out - the cite tags were added at the request of an editor during the course of an A-class review. If cites aren't added, the tags can be removed once the review is closed. Carom 17:22, 29 December 2006 (UTC) They are still excessive and in most cases, unnecessary. Bzuk 18:05 29 December 2006 (UTC).
