Just wanted to say that RAF Polebrook looks pretty professional. I'm not familiar with the material but it looks rather nice. Good work! Isopropyl 11:25, 13 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Air Force work

[edit]

Great stuff with all the work you've done on cold war USAF history. When you're uploading images in the future, might I suggest that you use this license: {{PD-USGov-Military-Air Force}} instead of the US Government standard license, as its more accurate. You don't need to select anything in the pull-down list of licenses, just paste that into the image discription when you're on the uploading screen. all the best, Cornell Rockey 20:06, 13 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fantastic work with this page! I would love to submit this article for peer review, but there are some things that need to be done first. We need to cite all possible references and link to them within the article. We could also expand the article a bit, maybe listing more about the operations of other groups and squadrons on the base. Are you currently stationed here? Anyway, as a suggestion, there is a license template that would be more appropriate for military badges: {{PD-USGov-Military-Badge}} Kajmal 00:06, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Cam Ranh Airport

[edit]

I (actually my stupid sockpuppet did it because I forgot to change browsers) moved the Cam Ranh Airport back to it's own article as it is an operational airport and should really have it's own article. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 12:32, 7 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi

I think Udon Thani International Airport is "correct" for Wikipedia, not Udorn Thani International Airport - but if not, you'll need to rename Udon Thani, Udon Thani Province and Diocese of Udon Thani too...

Hi,

I agree in part and also disagree in part to the above statement.

We have two issues here. As happens in many areas of the world in which USAF bases are co-located at a foreign civilian airfield, there are two names. As an example, at Frankfurt International Airport (Germany), Rhein Main Air Base was the name of the US Air Base located at that airport until is was deactivated in the 1990's.

The US Air Base in Udon Province, Thailand during the Vietnam War was named Udorn Air Base. I agree that the civilian name for the airfield is Udon as referenced above. I suggest that anyone that has any questions about the name of the Vietnam era Udorn Air Base should look at these official USAF documents.

I simply split the article into two. One for the civil airport, the other for the historical military base.

RAF bases in England

[edit]

I have noticed that you have main a large contribution to RAF bases in England. I am currently writing an article on RAF Davidstow Moor. Do you have any information or an aerial photograph of the base? --Benjaminevans82 22:05, 14 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I like your pic showing all active duty USAF bases on the UK... but it is missing RAF Menwith Hill and RAF Welford. Jazznutuva 12:17, 24 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Remember

[edit]

Don't forget the common rule, "I before E, except after C"

You're work on the article List of units using the A-7 Corsair II is strongly appreciated (you really konw your stuff), but don't forget to look out for common typos. I had to change "recieved" to "received" at least 30 times.

Thanks for your contributions!--Renegade Replicant 00:07, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
