Good to know

Its good to know that the British airborne life boats were made out of aluminium and the American airborne life boats were made from aluminum. And entirely appropriate in this instance. Such attention to detail is what makes Wikipedia special.Eregli bob (talk) 08:30, 5 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
