Hi Drew...you asked for my comments, so...first, keep the tone encyclopedic. As it is right now, it reads a bit too informally, like a fanzine (your description of the 206, for instance; I can't imagine Britannica ever having text that reads in that tone). Also, you might want to be careful about references and technical accuracy. The reason for refs is that you have backup to show that the use of a particular type of helicopter was genuinely notable in that particular movie/TV show, and to show that you have it right as far as what model was used. For instance, you have Airwolf listed as a 206...it's not, it was a 222A, and there's very little those two models have in common. Blue Thunder wasn't a 206, either, it was a completely fictional helicopter. Study all the reasons the 3 articles got deleted, and make sure that when you go for DRV with this one, you've addressed each of them in terms of our guidelines...it'll make things much easier for you. Hope this helps. AKRadecki^Speaketh 13:09, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

Hey Alan thanx for your in put on the content I'll make a note of it. In reference to your Helicopter ID's the movies listed under the Bell 206 such as Blue Thunder I was referring to the beginning of the Film with LAPD helicopters "Bell Jet Ranger" of course when I got down the list to Aerospatiale SA 342 Gazelle, then we'd talk about the big dog. Also would be true of "Santini Air" Bell Jet Ranger FYI CFI rotorcraft- helicopter out of VNY give me a little more credit that please  : D Thanx again ANigg 05:54, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
