Talk:McDonnell Douglas

thread_title:  Failure/Merge Details? 

message: McDonnell Douglas did not build Sky Lab. They built the air lock that joined the Apolla capsule and the actual space station. I feel the list of products should be changed to reflect this fact. For documentation of this, I present my Father who helped to build the Air Lock and who's signature is on the Mock Up currently on display in the Smithstonian.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Devildave (talk • contribs) 19:08, 31 March 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Who would you list as the manufacturer then?  McDonnell Douglas was the main contractor and did the conversion work on the stages. -Fnlayson (talk) 19:42, 31 March 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  SkyLab Air Lock 

message: It seems like these two sections are the same kind of information in this article. Why not just merge them and use one heading instead of two?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.193.126.80 (talk) 02:36, 30 August 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Background covers McDonnell Douglas' pre-history before it was formed in 1967.  Whichever way the sections are done, this part still needs to be labeled background or something very similar. -Fnlayson (talk) 03:55, 30 August 2013 (UTC)

message: On this page I've discovered McDonnell Douglas published two images for the freighter MD-17, who know about that? -- Great Brightstar (talk) 19:13, 3 December 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: This was a proposed commercial version of the C-17. See Boeing C-17 Globemaster III#Variants. -Fnlayson (talk) 20:15, 3 December 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  MD-17 

message: I am curious why there is absolutely nothing about the problems with the DC 10 that lead to two of the worst air disasters in history.  Seems there is a period from about 1971-1977 that is entirely ignored.  Rather important bit of history for that company, right? 121.98.228.243 (talk) 14:12, 23 August 2022 (UTC)
