[edit] Antonov 225

I couldnt find the manufactures page before you posted the link. And when I looked at the page I could directly see that I was ofcurse wrong and you are ofcurse right ;)

[edit] Template linebreak

This is one of those bizarre Wiki things. If you use the table tag, there is no linebreak. If you use the {| there is a linebreak. Ingoolemo wanted to use a regular expression for variable table width with a max of 23em which the table tag doesn't tolerate. The way to fix this on a page is by starting the infobox code on the same line as the WP:Air header comment. - Emt147 Burninate! 05:26, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Template:Infobox Aircraft

The linebreak issue is one that must be dealt with in the articles themselves. I'm taking care of it as part of my updates. See also User:Ingoolemo/Threads/06/05/19a. Ingoolemo talk 16:50, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] F14 maneuverability an accident

You have been cited that the f-14 was not designed to be maneuverable, it was an accidnet. Can you clarify, and tell me how you reached this conclusion? There is a fellow guarding the F-14 article that erases any attempt to counter this view. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wiarthurhu (talk • contribs)

You may wish to read this fellow's self-proclaimed resume on his user page. --Mmx1 23:17, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] US aircraft navbox

I was just wondering why you converted Template:Active military aircraft of the United States (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) into a list. I found the navbox was a much better, more accessable format. --GW_Simulations|User Page | Talk | Contribs | E-mail 21:15, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the explanation. Perhaps the Lockheed one should also be converted/deleted. --GW_Simulations|User Page | Talk | Contribs | E-mail 21:29, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
I'll help if I get a chance. Right now I'm helping with setting up a new "Selected Aircraft" section of the Aviation Portal, which will be online tomorrow. --GW_Simulations|User Page | Talk | Contribs | E-mail 21:35, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

Bit too late now. I'll do it tomorrow (well, where I am that will be later), when I'm waiting for the launch of STS-121. --GW_Simulations|User Page | Talk | Contribs | E-mail 23:50, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] RfC on Wiarthurhu

I have filed a Request for Comment on Wiarthurhu Wikipedia:Requests_for_comment/Wiarthurhu. as the next step to resolving the issues on the F-14 Tomcat page. Your input is requested. --Mmx1 05:40, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

Fair enough.--Mmx1 20:40, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Rutan Defiant cleanup

Thanks for your cleanup on Rutan Defiant. If you have the time, would you mind taking a look at a couple other Rutan pages I've created (I'm slowly working on writing pages for all of Rutan's planes)? Rutan ATTT make that Scaled Composites ATTT, Toyota TAA-1 and NASA AD-1. Thanks! Akradecki 19:53, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

I dropped the above note before seeing what you wrote on the project page. One thing that will be a bit of a problem are specifications on some of his aircraft...they're often proprietary...Burt is a bit paranoid regarding secrecy (he really doesn't seem to like me, as I take pictures of his stuff and publish them! His wife is really sweet, though). And since we're on the subject, I'll ask you're opinion. Besides the planes, Burt also designed his own house, an octogonal, semi-underground, ultra-energy efficient beauty. I fly over it a lot, and have pics of it...and it should really be mentioned somewhere. On his Bio page? On the Scaled page under "other projects"? Thoughts? Akradecki 20:12, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] A-6 Intruder

Thanks for cleaning up the first paragraph - you beat me to it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by CruiserBob (talk • contribs) .

[edit] 787 BBJ orders

Yeah, I realized after the article was reverted by the unknown user that it was the date of the order/lease and not the date of the article that was being changed. NcSchu 22:41, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
