Article has been 5x'd, is long enough, and has no copyvio/policy issues. Hook is interesting and short, though I'm not sure if the fact that it was Squadron of the Year is needed. Ideally the sentence that supports the hook in the article would be turned into prose instead of a quote, but as far as I can tell that's not a policy issue.

AviationFreak Thanks for the review. I'm fine if the promoter decides to remove that part from the hook. Also, thanks for fixing the quoted content. It still messes me up sometimes. SL93 (talk) 16:58, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
