Talk:Flying Bedstead

What is a wooden stick check?
That expression appears in the article, but it's a red link. Googling "wooden stick check" returns mirrors of this article, plus unrelated pages where "wooden stick" and "check are separated by punctuation (like "Either with your finger or a wooden stick, check the moisture level...")

So what does that even mean? Is it the result of vandalism?Devil Master (talk) 22:19, 16 February 2011 (UTC)


 * It's standard practice in aviation to confirm the amount of fuel in the tanks with a calibrated dipstick (like the one for the oil in your car) In this case the pilot failed to do so, ran out of fuel, and crashed. I've edited the page linking to dipstick. Johnnie Rico (talk) 23:52, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

LLRV
I,ve never heard of the LLRV being called flying bedstead. Do you have references??? If not then the article should be amended.--Petebutt (talk) 07:42, 27 December 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm convinced that the author has applied wishful thinking here. In the meantime I shall re-direct the article to the TMR and if references come up then a proper disambiguation page can be raised.--Petebutt (talk) 09:39, 27 December 2012 (UTC)
