The article states (16 April 2013) that "Germany attempted to copy this aircraft [i.e. the De Havilland Mosquito, just mentioned in the text] as the Moskito, it used Tego film". The Ta 154 Moskito was a design very different from its British namesake. A statement like this undermines one's confidence in the entire article. |

Adhesive type error - Aerolite UF or casein?
This article includes the phrase "glued by Aerolite, a casein adhesive."
But Aerolite is a UF adhesive. Was the Albatross bonded with Aerolite or casein? Either way, something is wrong and needs changing.

- The problem aroose with this uncited change, adding "Aerolite" to the pre-existing "casein". I can source the Albatross as having used a casein adhesive, and that the Mosquito used Aerolite, but not that the Albatross used Aerolite. As you note, Aerolite is a urea formaldehyde, not casein - although one has to be careful with old brandnames, as sometimes the modern adhesive bears little resemblance to the current formula.

- Aerolite wasn't available until 1938 so the Albatross is unlikely to have been constructed using it: [1] - however, this article also from Flight specifically mentions the Albatross using it: [2]— Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.7.147.13 (talk) 14:41, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
