Textron are listed as manufacturers of cluster bombs at the end of the article on cluster bombs. Can anyone confirm whether they do or don't? Their website contains a reference to a 'product' that has self destruct features built in ' leaving battlefields clean of unexploded warheads that endanger the lives of innocent civilians..' Is this just a cluster bomb with a feature no-one uses? and are they still making cluster bombs without this feature but just not saying so?


M*A*S*H* hellicopters. Bell did infact make the helicopter seen in M*A*S*H but this is not the UH-1 Huey. I really don't think that there is a Huey in M*A*S*H nor was the huey even around at this time. Another movie like Apocolypse Now, or Full Metal Jacket would be more appropriate.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Textron logo.png

Image:Textron logo.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 03:40, 6 June 2007 (UTC)


I think the statement that "he [Royal Little] knew who killed JFK" probably needs removal- or at least citation. Unless, I suppose, the author simply meant he knew that Oswald was the assassin... In that case I guess he knew who won the 67 world series too...
