Trombone-style

I think the use of quotation marks for trombone, when the word is also with the adjective suffix -style, is redundant. It is also unnecessary. :) --Born2flie (talk) 13:25, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

Assessment comment

The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:Allison Model 250/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.

This article has very little on the history of the engine's development and its original history with Allison Engine Company, history of its widespread use within the light helicopter community and its continued development and use today. This article could use some specifications of several models, particularly the C16 or C18, and the C30R or C40R models. It should probably also include a list of the different models of the engines.

What is the unit "WPS"

This article uses the unit of "WPS" in reference to the power of this engine family. What is this unit? I can't find anything on Google, and I don't know where else to look. RedshiftVelocities (talk) 06:05, 18 February 2023 (UTC)

A very good question! The clue was that the whole table was copied and pasted in from German Wikipedia in 2011. PS is Pferdestarke (metric horsepower) and 'W' is short for Wellenleistung (shaft power) so WPS is literally translated to shaft horsepower. I've removed the table as it was non-standard, clearly unsourced and would need thoroughly checking for other errors. Nimbus (Cumulus nimbus floats by) 08:51, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
