You have an amazing collection of photographs - thanks for making them available here -- Melburnian 13:29, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
Thank you for bringing this to my attention. The only source I have on Sweden's B-17s is this one. Could you tell me where I can find information of the planes being given to Sweden for free? Until such a time I'd prefer to take Sweden out of the article entirely. - Trevor MacInnis ( Contribs) 20:48, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
The Saab 37 Viggen page has recently been expanded, could you have a look at it to check the information added? -- MoRsE 14:37, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for correcting the base and aricraft designation names. I would, however, appreciate a nicer tone in the comments. Capital letters and several exclamation portray shouting.--

SwAF required and Saab built the Viggen for having STOL performance according to what is listed as STOL by NATO. Perhaps only a clean Viggen with minimal amount of fuel onboard can meet those requirements, but it was developed as such. T96 grh 10:14, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
There is an ongoing discussion about the naming of the Talk:Saab_37_Viggen and whether the Vigg(swedish)=duck=canard(french) was official or coincidental. Do you have access to any published info about this? I do remember reading about it in a book in Swedish about the Viggen, but I don't have it here in the US. T96 grh 01:41, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
Hi there, Towpilot. I understand you are of the opinion that the image I found at Backwoods Landing Strip marked as a Fokker C.V is really a VL Tuisku. Can you be so kind as to tell me how it is that you can see that the image is of a Tuisku and not a C.V, and thus why Backwoods have gotten this one wrong? Manxruler ( talk) 21:00, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
Just in regard to your comments on this; for the article P-51 variants I used the power ratings figures from Gruenhagen 1980 Mustang, which, for the V-1650-3, are the same as that quoted by Tom Reilly: 1,490 hp, low blower, 61" Hg at 13,750 ft. I forgot to check the actual T/O ratings before lending the book out. On the Merlin 63/70 series engines used in Spitfire Mk VII/VIII and IXs the British specify +7 lbs boost for normal take-off, with a maximum of + 12 allowable (no hp is given). I would assume that if in normal operational service the USAAF was using similar boost pressures to the British Merlins the T/O power rating at about 45" Hg (roughly similar to +7 lbs) would be around 1,100-1,200 hp. A problem with quoting such figures is that someone will find fault with them and quote something else, without realising that (for example) the fuel blend used might have a major impact on how an engine performs. The Merlin 66 was capable of 1,720 hp but that would have been through using 150/100 grade fuel which allowed a maximum boost of +25 lbs ie 80" Hg. Using 100 octane fuel only allowed +18 lbs (67" Hg) which reduced the rating by at least 200 hp. Minorhistorian ( talk) 13:27, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
Hello, I work for a Canadian Television production company and we are making a one-hour documentary on James Cameron. I noticed you have some great photos of him and of his producer ex wife Gale Anne Hurd. I wanted to know if we could use them in our show. We could discuss further details over email, my address is julie@triconfilms.com. I look forward to hearing from you. Thanks, Julie 208.124.206.234 ( talk) 20:56, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

Hi there. I see that from your Dragonfly edit this morning, and from others over the years, you say that there was never a Royal Swedish Air Force. I'm confused as there appears to be some evidence suggesting that there was. For example their own article begins Flygvapnet, tidigare Kungliga Flygvapnet
, and there are other references to this name. On the other hand you, a clearly competent editor (and possibly even Swedish yourself, to boot!), obviously think that this isn't right ... where do we go from here? (And yes, I know that in the global scheme of things it's not exactly the no. 1 priority! I'm just being a bit pedantic ...) Any ideas? Thanks and best wishes
