On 14 January 2018, it was proposed that this article be moved from Fairchild Dornier 328JET to Fairchild Dornier 328Jet. The result of the discussion was No Consensus. |
USAF has news release that the Advanced Composite Cargo Aircraft version of the 328JET has had its first flight ( http://www.af.mil/news/story.asp?id=123152339). Complete with government pictures that may be of use 70.117.21.62 ( talk) 04:29, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
On wiki page, under the Performance heading, the speed data for 328JET has been supplied as: Maximum speed: 685 km/h; 426 mph (370 kn) Cruising speed: 750 km/h (466 mph; 405 kn) which means the cruising speed is higher than the maximum speed!
On the 7th link of references, the correct speed is given as: Max cruising speed 750km/h (405kt)
I think a correction on wiki page is necessary. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.213.157.88 ( talk) 05:55, 29 May 2015 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: No Consensus. Fair point each side, and it has been relisted. There is no consensus for moving now. ( non-admin closure) – Ammarpad ( talk) 03:58, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
Fairchild Dornier 328JET → Fairchild Dornier 328Jet – Per MOS:TM. "JET" is a stylization, not an acronym. feminist ( talk) 10:06, 14 January 2018 (UTC)--Relisting. Galobtter ( pingó mió) 10:43, 21 January 2018 (UTC)
The citation from Planespotters only says that one 328JET, cryptically described as being in "VIP" configuration, has been registered to the Chadian government. It does not indicate how the aircraft is actually intended to be used or that the Air Force will operate it. If so, they could be converting it to an AWACS or EW configuration (stranger things have happened), and at least in Western countries, it is unusual for a military aircraft to carry civil registration. In short, the citation needs to affirmatively say that it is an Air Force VIP aircraft, not just that the Chadian government owns it. Carguychris ( talk) 14:48, 19 January 2021 (UTC)
I am reverting the addition of Sierra Nevada Corporation as "manufacturer" in the infobox for a second time. The issue is not the lack of citations; the issue is that, by longstanding general convention in aviation, a type certificate holder that provides parts and support for existing aircraft—or even overhauls them—is not considered a "manufacturer" until substantial progress is made towards building all-new airframes (and by "substantial progress," I mean setting up a production line, not websites and PowerPoint presentations to attract investors and/or deposits). Ergo, Boeing is not the manufacturer of the DC-10, Univair is not the manufacturer of the Ercoupe, Viking is not the manufacturer of the DHC-2 Beaver, and so on. It is adequate to discuss Sierra Nevada in the article body. Carguychris ( talk) 13:17, 26 March 2021 (UTC)
