McKnight's aircraft at Hiroshima

edit

According to Operations Order 35 and this page from the Atomic Heritage Foundation (which has rearranged its website since our citations for this article were generated in 2007), Lt McKnight flew the Hiroshima mission in Big Stink (Victor 90), not Top Secret (Victor 72), which was his usual aircraft. The statement that McKnight flew Top Secret at Hiroshima is repeated on the article for the aircraft, but does not have a citation on that page. I've added the "Dubious" template to both pages: although I believe the sourcing is good for Big Stink, I think it's advisable to discuss any changes first.

I will check the sources. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 00:07, 10 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
  Done Verified against Campbell. Updated per your suggestion. Replaced the reference with the one from Campbell. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 13:06, 10 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
Thanks! Corresponding changes are needed to Top Secret (aircraft) and Big Stink (aircraft) - should I do them, or would you prefer to do so? Tevildo (talk) 18:08, 10 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
You can handle those. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:01, 10 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
