:using google earth, RAF mount pleasant appears to be ~ 30 miles south-west-west of port stanley, though I'm not sure that's the way to write it (which is why I haven't edited it in) 81.102.41.34 23:54, 25 September 2005 (UTC)

message: The section has a lot of propaganda, false assumptions and irrelevant data (e.g. Belgrano has nothing to do with Mount Pleasant). Please check with other well sources articles like Falklands War. --Jor70 (talk) 11:14, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: There was a lot wrong with the "rewrite", not least due to the fact it removed critical information.  Fast jet = fighter, not passenger aircraft in English for one.  Justin talk 08:19, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: I did explain part of what it was above, I really don't have the time to explain every action to you.  Continually questioning my good faith edits is starting to get extremely tedious and not to mention rather irritating.  As is your POV push on these articles.    Justin talk 13:38, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

message: HMS Invincible is mentioned in the context of the need to cover the Islands post '82. Fair enough. However, the gratuitous mention of the 30th of May "attack" and supposed damage caused to the vessel has been entirely debunked elsewhere, and is only seen these days as a weak piece of Argentine propaganda and not worthy of Wikipedia. I will remove this reference immediately. If there is any need for discusion on this point, please add below.

replies: text: Please undo your last revision  since your removal had nothing to do with the alleged Argentine attack. User:Justin A Kuntz had already removed the material in question, eight minutes before your edit. The Invincible's repair at sea was correct, as stated in the lines you removed. --Regards, Necessary Evil (talk) 21:50, 11 September 2009 (UTC)

message: I have trouble with the idea of flights from Mount Pleasant to St Helena. But it rather depends on whether it means just flights from the Falklands to St Helena or is meant to imply flights from St Helena to the Falklands as well. It's stated to be about 3,812 miles from St Helena to the Falklands. Although the St Helena airport will be "international", the runway will be relatively short. This places considerable restraints on the aircraft that could use it. I haven't been able to find a commercial aircraft that could use St Helena and have the range to reach the Falklands. It is felt that most flights from St Helena will be to mainland Africa. That wouldn't help because, even if an aircraft "hopped" down the west coast of Africa, the distance from Cape Town to the Falklands is even more. It "might" be possible for an aircraft originating in the Falklands to land at St Helena, having expended most of its fuel, but how would it take off again? Incidentally, St Helena's airport will only be able to accommodate two mid-range aircraft at a time. Even the wingspan of a long range aircraft might be too much! The MercoPress news agency is not necessarily so reliable. You will note that I use the term "St Helena" rather than "Saint Helena". Most search engines default to the town of Saint Helena, near San Francisco. Might be worth considering.Agent0060 12:49, 24 June 2013 (UTC)

message: ...as well as the lack of references.  There is a sentence "currently,,,," with no date, containing what us I believe out-dated information.  Further on there is a "Now..." with no date, probably also followed by out-dated information.  
Would someone like to give this article a complete overhaul?
