Due to the length of the CF section, which somewhat overwelms other parts of the article, I'm recommending that we split off the the section and the related specs to the CT-134 Musketeer page (currently a redirect here). This would also give more coverage to the aircraft of the CAF/CF, which are usually tagged onto articles about civil (like this one) or US militry aircraft. The split would be fairly straight forward at this point, and I could probably do it in less thn 10 minutes when given the go-ahead. Honestly, I would usually just go ahead and do this type of split without discussion for such a relatively minor type. However, given the regular editing of the page by regular editors, asking first is appropriate. - BillCJ ( talk) 01:35, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
"Most Musketeers are now privately owned and are prized for their large, roomy cabins, airframe strength and stability, if not their high cruise speeds." This sentence is valid except for the "if not" clause. I have flown all models of the Musketeer/Sundowner/Sierra side-by-side with their Cessna and Piper competitors, at full throttle, and the max speeds of all equivalent moidels (exception: the 150 hp Sport, which I seldom flew, and never flew against a competitor) - Beech, Cessna, or Piper - were identical. It was like a formation flight...perhaps a half knot either way. What was definitely different was the accuracy of the Beech's pitot/airspeed scaling. Beechcraft's airspeed indicators of any model were very accurate across the normal range. I didn't make any changes in the page on this, but I suggest that the comment about speed be deleted, as it is not supportable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by LarryB55 ( talk • contribs) 00:52, 13 November 2011 (UTC)
Somehow we picked up an extra two dozen Canadian airplanes. I think you're correct that they were C23s, but there were only 24 in total. LarryB55 ( talk) 01:26, 26 November 2011 (UTC)
The unusual landing gear is not described in sufficient detail for someone not already familiar with it to understand how it works. It seems like the the trailing idler link gear might be worth its own article. Bill ( talk) 22:33, 7 June 2016 (UTC)
