Assessment comments

I think with a few more references, we should be able to get this through GA now. The article presents a good overview of the subject from design through production and use to retirement. Some possible areas for further improvement are:

  • The lead section is still very short and does not present a complete summary of the entire article.
  • There is only one reference. A few more references would be helpful here; I'll see what I can find out of my own resources later this week.
  • The end of the service life section briefly mentions that one was preserved in St. Louis. Perhaps someone in the area could visit the museum for a couple photos.
