Talk:Stinson L-5 Sentinel

Merging from "Stinson L-5" into "L-5 Sentinel"

 * My reasons to merge these two articles in the manner presented are as follows:
 * 1) The article name convention of other planes is their aircraft series number and their knickname (i.e. KC-135 Stratotanker, B-52 Stratofortress, etc.).
 * 2) The USAF lists this aircraft as the "L-5 Sentinel" on their AFHRA website.
 * 3) The article is about a military aircraft, not a civilian aircraft, and the naming convention should reflect that.
 * 4) Admittedly, the "Stinson L-5" article has more information and data than the "L-5 Sentinel" article, but the article should follow the standard naming conventions.
