Talk:Vitamin D-binding protein

message: J.delanoy. You reverted my edit. I don't think you took the time to review what was written as it clearly was not vandalism, it was useful information about the protein. I have added this back in.
I had also entered the amino acid sequence for the first (of 3) domains. I added the spaces to allow for soft line breaks. I have not added this back in as it looks like random letters, but makes sense to those working with protein sequences. The letters represent amino acids.  Perhaps wikipedia does not wish to have protein sequences included (this may be reasonable) so I have posted it below for yourself or another to consider transferring it to the article if it has merit.
: Hi there, the reversions of your edits were discussed over here.  Thanks for adding back the description of protein structure, and your guess was correct that the protein sequences generally do not appear in Wikipedia articles.  Hope you continue editing (and WP:MCB and Portal:Gene Wiki may be of interest to you as well).  Cheers, AndrewGNF (talk) 04:04, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Heinkel He 176

message: Some of the article content, in particular the test-flight preparations and descriptions, seem to be partial copies or too-close a paraphrasis of this non-free content. The tone in the test flight sections is promotional, non-neutral and oddly peacockish. How much of this material is a straight lift from Warsitz' son's book on his father's career?

Talk:Westland-Hill Pterodactyl

message: HI
The picture from Flight magazine has a caption which reads "1A powered by Armstrong-Siddeley Genet engine". This seems to contradict the info in the article. Chaosdruid (talk) 04:12, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Version

message: The Pterodactyl VIII was a proposed transatlantic airliner (and not the Canadian NRC tailless glider as some claim). Web rumours of this airliner have it as a proposal by Short Brothers having a typical Pterodactyl wing, and an artist's impression is bandied about. OTOH, one of Hill's assistants at Westland, H.A. Mettam, recalls in Flight that it may have been a delta although its lifetime was so brief he can hardly remember, and he makes no mention of Short Bros. Was Mettam mistaken? Was there ever a Short Bros. proposal and if so, was it the same Mk VIII or a different type? Or is the Internet pehaps confusing it with the Short SB.1/SB.4 aeroisoclinic testbed? Do any reliable sources exist? — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 16:35, 25 June 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Pterodactyl VIII 

message: Mettam recalls that the Mks V and VI were paired with rear/front gun turrets respectively, while some Internet sources suggest that the Mks. II and III were. I have placed the idea under the V/VI story for now, as Mettam is the best source I can find.

Talk:Air cycle machine

message: Well, this is an interesting piece of unsourced folklore from user:24.99.195.199:
:
"PACK" (P.A.C.K.) is the acronym for "Pneumatic Air Cycle Kit", which includes the ACM, heat exchangers, water separators, pressure regulating mechanisms, etc.
The original B707 had a non-pneumatic vapor cycle "pack," and so did the Lockheed L-188A.  You can look up their 1950's era operating manuals and control panels and can clearly see their non-pneumatic cooling systems referred to as "packs", so I can't see how the supposed acronym above could be true.

Talk:Aircraft cabin

message: Hi all. In the Spanish version of the article business class was also called "executive class", and economy class was also called "tourist class". I've taken that information out since I've never heard them described that way in English, but if someone thinks they can be, please feel free to add it back in. The sections about First/Business class also only had Spanish references. I've added them in for now, but it might be good to find English ones. Especially since they don't appear to be that compelling. (An architecture magazine or newspaper of some sort, and eHow.) There was no source for the economy class section, but since the information seems valid to me I kept it and added a [citation needed] tag. Please feel free to drop me a message on my talk page if anyone has questions about anything I did. Best, Mww113    (talk) 22:31, 4 October 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Circulation control wing

message: In the Powering the wing section it states that a reduction in engine power production defies the purpose of the wing.
I would suggest it would be better stated as 
Powering the wing requires air from the engine which reduces the available thrust.
This also means that when the engine is at a lower thrust setting there is less air available for the wing.
This is unfortunate as more air is needed during landing to aid control at low speed.
Because of this the buccaneer tended to land with high thrust settings and used airbrakes to keep it's speed down to ensure that it had air for its blown flaps. JPelham (talk) 14:27, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
Talk:Davis wing

message: Found the below text in the article. It is poorly worded for an encyclopedia and also seems to be original research:
Possible correction to the section regarding Cal Tech wind tunnel testing of the Davis wing.
It is my understanding that the initial Cal Tech wind tunnel test on the Davis wing did not show any readings, because the wing was literally "off the scale" (i.e., Cal Tech's instruments would not register at that higher level).  At the insistence of the Consolidated folks, Cal Tech then recalibrated their instruments and reran the tests, and reran them more than the three times noted.
Source:  Notes taken directly from discussion group of original Consolidated Aircraft B-24 design engineers conducted in 1989 in San Diego, CA at original home of Consolidated (later Convair, General Dynamics, etc.).

thread_title:  "My understanding" 

message: Has anyone seen modern military drones on television news programs?  The wings on some models look exactly like the Davis wing.  Since these drones fly exceptionally slow in orbiting a target area, it would not suprise me if the designers used a tried and true design. 70.246.232.140 (talk) 05:25, 25 November 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Modern UAVs

message: "Initial results of the Caltech wind tunnel tests were disappointing. Test instruments did not support Davis' predictions. However, Davis and others determined that the Caltech wind tunnel's instruments were not sufficiently sensitive to detect improvements from the Davis wing tests, despite being among the most sophisticated of their kind at the time. Re-calibration of the Caltech wind tunnel instruments, tests showed significantly improved readings.[1]
The results of the wind tunnel test were so good they were unbelievable."
If the instruments were so imprecise that they couldn't even measure the difference between the Davis wing, they must have been really imprecise if they failed to spot the fact that the wing was so good it was "unbelievable". Doesn't really make much sense. If the wing was that good, some indication must have registered on the equipment. If not, then the equipment was so poor as to be almost useless. 
Next, it says "In retrospect, the cross-section shows some resemblance to the NACA 6-series airfoils used on the North American P-51 Mustang." I don't see how a thick, teardrop shaped wing could in many ways resemble the ultra-thin fighter plane wing design on the P-51. AnnaGoFast (talk) 02:04, 7 July 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  Confusing Text 

message: I'll just give my guess on the above prior to making some changes to the article.
I think that the author is saying because the intake is a compressor it has to contain air at high temperature and pressure using seals where parts move relative to one another,eg ramps. Diesel piston rings also have to seal high temperatures and pressures? I propose taking out the wording as I don't believe it adds value.
I'm working on making some changes to the article for a number of reasons.
There are some odd statements like "it sucks air",  "bursting open from dynamic air overpressure"'  "turboramjets of the SR-71".
The J. Scott reference is wrong to a disturbing degree.
I support the original author of this article as it took time and dedication to write it. I've only done the easy bit so far, to pick fault.
