Article[edit]

Probably not a bad idea, I will work it in since i am the main editor.--Magi Media 05:30, 26 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Coke Gas[edit]

The article mentions "Coke Gas", but does not explain what it is. I have no clue what it is otherwise I would edit the article myself, but could someone who knows what it is please elaborate in the article 75.33.35.170 17:36, 22 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The problem may be solved by redirecting the expression to an article which explains it: coke gas!--Magi Media 03:51, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Additional Material[edit]

Consider adding Joseph Kittinger to the article for his high altitude balloon work. Carl M. Anglesea (talk) 19:17, 3 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

French or British at Boxer Rebellion[edit]

Perhaps British.[1] Still searching for cite to confirm French (there's this,[2] but that's the best I have so far). Bromley86 (talk) 10:42, 1 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Lincoln not president during American Revolution[edit]

This entire section about the Revolutionary War mixes up the dates of 1776 and 1861, and the Union Army and the Continental Army. It should be re-written or scrapped lest some politician read it and think there were airports during the American Revolution Jnmwiki (talk) 15:18, 5 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for correcting this - it obviously had been vandalized today in light of controversy over a speech given yesterday Jnmwiki (talk) 15:32, 5 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
