most important airfield ??
I am not sure if I agree with that assessment. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Ndp2005goh (talk • contribs) 02:48, 5 December 2006 (UTC).

i am not sure either :) - tengah might be the largest fighter base in the country i think; at least before F15SG SQN. - changi is by size bigger (3 runway) - paya lebar appears to be where most of the air force infrastructure is at also, i am not sure if UAV is under tengah.

Reason for multiple links
I added multiple external links (but for the same media content, please note) in response to what I thought were valid criticisms on Wikipedia talk:External links. It was pointed out that YouTube requires the reader to install Flash software (and enable Javascript) before the target of the links are usable. It is a valid criticism and so I added alternate links that allow a user with no Flash (and no Javascript in one case) to download the media. However, I now see the videos are not related to the airbase (I thought it was at first) and so should not be here at all (see Wikipedia talk:External links). If there is a connection could someone please add it to the description? Or is there a more suitable article, such as Exercise Torrent or Roads to runways? 84user (talk) 22:58, 26 May 2009 (UTC)


 * And my valid point is that these peeps might be either reading this page and the associate video link from a public access computer or firewalled company which are not equipped with those add-ons, hence they have to respect the regulation or policy of such. Also, we have no control over what our readers use as browser and add-ons, therefore it is wise to leave it to them to decide. Which isn't really a big issue here, actually. And if you feel a need to write an article for Exercise Torrent or Roads to runways, be bold and do it~! You have my blessings. --Dave1185 (talk) 23:08, 26 May 2009 (UTC)


 * As a side note, those videos I added in are for references and are related to the airbase due to the fact that Exercise Torrent is held every few years to test the readiness of the airbase to deploy RSAF's combat aircraft to utilise Lim Chu Kang Road, which is just adjacent to the air base, as a temporary runway; much like the way that Singapore Armed Forces test and mobilise its reservists during annual recalls. --Dave1185 (talk) 11:06, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

Interception of Indonesian aircraft by Lightnings
"This needs verification - No 74 Squadron Royal Air Force did not deploy to RAF Tengah until 1967, as only during that year during June were they issued with the F.Mk.6 Lightnings. The Indonesia–Malaysia confrontation ended in 1966." p.p.on behalf of 2.122.71.249 --KTo288 (talk) 14:38, 13 October 2017 (UTC)′
