Talk:Miss Veedol

message: I've never seen an aircraft warrant two articles, just because of a change of ownership and name. Clarityfiend (talk) 03:25, 8 November 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: It is the same aircraft and more often known as "Miss Veedol" which should remain the main article with a mention of the change in name. FWiW  Bzuk (talk) 15:12, 13 November 2015 (UTC)

thread_title:  Merger proposal 

message: Does anyone have a photo or photos of the original plane, intact or crashed, which would be preferable to the replica image used now on this page and for inclusion on the pilot's page. A photo of the surviving propeller would be useful on these two pages as well. Thanks. Randy Kryn 22:44, 3 May 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: You will NEVER see a photo of "Miss Veedol" crashed because she dove into deep water in the Atlantic Ocean (probably into the Bay of Biscay), and never was seen again. Asking for a photo of it is like asking for a photo of the crashed airplane of Amelia Earhart. There are not any, and she probably ditched into the Pacific Ocean, anyway. That is what the evidence from her radio transmissions shows.47.215.183.159 (talk) 20:41, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi, and thanks for answering. I meant a photo of it crashed in Washington, not a photo of its final crash into the ocean. The museum there may have one, or at a minimum have a useable picture of the propeller (which is on display). Randy Kryn (talk) 22:32, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
thread_title: Images needed

message: It is ridiculous to make the assertion that...
"Something is uncertain" needs a SOURCE. Really absurd.
Something is uncertain because There Are Not Any Sources, and hence it is uncertain By Common Sense.
If I say, "Adolf Hitler has never been seen in Antarctica," this is valid because no reliable sources say that he was ever seen there. Only ridiculous sources ever say that he was ever there.47.215.183.159 (talk) 20:34, 21 October 2017 (UTC)

message: Does someone have information about the first non-stop trans-Pacific flight from East to West? I'll also post this at the Clyde Pangborn page. Thanks. Randy Kryn (talk) 12:26, 1 January 2018 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified (January 2018) 

message: According to the article, the plane was spotted over Cape Cod just under 12 hours after it departed from New York City. If that is, correct, it means that in 12 hours it had flown at an average speed of about 25km/hour, about 5% of the total distance of what was expected to be a 25 hour flight, for which 32 hours of fuel were carried. At that rate, it should have fun out of fuel before even reaching the middle of the Atlantic. Something is wrong here.Bill (talk) 02:42, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: The way I read it, the plane was sighted three times, the second time in mid-Atlantic under 12 hours in, which is about right for a 25-hour flight. I have modified the phrasing accordingly. Clarityfiend (talk) 04:06, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
