Can you indicate the licenses for the images you uploaded? At the very least, it would be polite to credit Mr Leeuwen for Image:Seafury_2.jpg. And some of the text is still a bit close to http://www.laahs.com/art20.htm, not enough to be a copyright violation perhaps but if I can find the source, it's probably too close. Finally, it would have been nicer to fill out the tables rather than delete them. Sorry if I'm being a bit critical. If you need any help resolving these issues, just ask me or try Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Aircraft. Geoff/Gsl 03:26, 21 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Hi eric - yes, the footer is problematic. It was originally designed for a different "skin" from the one that the 'pedia is now using. I put forward a suggestion that it needs attention on the Wikiproject Aircraft talk page a few days ago, but with little response so far. I might have a go at it myself (although table design isn't something I claim to have any particular talents in!) If you think you can come up with something, please suggest it for discussion.

Hi eric! Your two latest entries take our September new articles tally past August's :) Yay! --Rlandmann 23:26, 24 Sep 2004 (UTC)
I also got the metric specs from Murphy's site, but was curious to see that they also list imperial first. Up to now, I've been relying on the fact that Canada's been officially metric since 1970, but doing a little digging, it seems that the process is far from complete (with at least two deadlines for complete metrification lapsing in the 1990s) and has plenty of zealots on both sides of the fence :) Thanks for the heads-up.
I still think metric-first for Canadian aircraft makes more sense (if that's the direction that the country is headed), but maybe we need a Canadian to clue us up! --Rlandmann 05:17, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)
I'm pretty sure I got it from Aviation Week, though I'd have to dig back to find the specific article. In any event, it's mainly in reference to the wing design. You can see that they are clearly derived. I clarified the page just a bit. -Joseph (Talk) 19:24, 2004 Oct 1 (UTC)
I handily admit that I might be off on that one. The older aircraft are harder to find info on, and my expertise really lies in newer Rutan aircraft. In this case, it did say "Rutan" before I got there, and gave no indication of the Quickie company. Also, Rutan/Scaled seem to use that model nomenclature often, but if this was offered by another company, it would be an exception in the same vein as the Starship, V-Jet II, etc. Also, in that case, the name of the article itself was wrong. -Joseph (Talk) 06:03, 2004 Oct 2 (UTC)
