Comments[edit]

1. for comparison with the wood. Suggest - in comparison with the wood

Good idea.

2. I'm guessing you have found the same problem with the height issue?

Yep, that will be a problem with most of my Soviet aircraft articles.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 18:41, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I've put the article on hold for seven days to allow you to address the issues I've brought up. Feel free to contact me on my talk page, or here with any concerns. Thurgate (talk) 23:58, 3 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Shame about the height issue, but soviet records are poor so what can you do. Anyway nice work, Strum. Passed.
