Talk:Century Series

Why stopped?
I think it would be good if this page explained why they stopped the century series and went back to single digit numbers. I have no idea why they did this (I think it was kind of arbitrary and pointless, esp. given the F 117, and what not).
 * The F- series (among others, such as the B- series) had a number series reset under the 1962 United States Tri-Service aircraft designation system. A75 19:23, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

Article name
Shouldn't the title be Century Series, as this is a proper name? I have always seen it published as "Century Series", and it is used that way in a book I have on the topic. - BillCJ 19:40, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

Error in Orthographically projected diagram of the F-100 Super Sabre
The front view is of a F-86 Sabre Jet, not the F-100. Someone with a good graphic package and skills could modify this for us. Thank you, LanceBarber 17:44, 3 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Compare F-86 3-view. I think you'll see a great difference between the two, and that the F-100 image is correct. - BillCJ 17:51, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

F-100 gallery image
Can anyone see why the F-100 image is not working in the gallery? The text for it is there and it is the same photo used in the infobox of the main F-100 article, tried to fix it but I can't see what is wrong. Nimbus227 15:59, 16 October 2007 (UTC)


 * It appears to be working for me. It might be a Wiki server problem, but that's just a guess. - BillCJ 16:48, 16 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Still not showing for me, some kind of glitch as you say Nimbus227 17:02, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

Tidy up?
Would it be stating the obvious that the word 'Century' is related to the fact that the designations are in the 100 and above sequence, it does not seem to be mentioned?

I think it would be nice to add a short description of each type under its linked heading for those readers who can't be bothered to go to those articles or may want a brief comparison, I can do this if nobody minds.

Not a single reference is given, I can fix that as well. Nimbus227 (talk) 21:19, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
