edit"Wikipedia is not an aircraft buying guide or comparison website"
- Comparisons are not prohibited in WP:NOT (and IMO it's one of wikipedia's strengths). In WP:NOTDIRECTORY, "Wikipedia is not a directory : Sales catalogues. An article should not include product pricing or availability information unless there is an independent source and a justified reason for the mention." Flying is independent and the price is an important factor in comparing aircraft. Maybe there will be a consensus to remove the price column, but then the "Unit cost" item in nearly every aircraft infobox should be removed.
- The table format is often used by aircraft lists, like List of fighter aircraft, List of attack aircraft, List of bomber aircraft, List of carrier-based aircraft and List of non-carrier aircraft flown from aircraft carriers, List of very light jets, List of light transport aircraft, List of regional airliners, List of jet airliners, List of human-powered aircraft, List of maritime patrol aircraft, Motor glider types, List of racing aircraft, Glider types, List of STOL aircraft, List of supersonic aircraft, List of torpedo bombers... The tables were discussed before in Talk:General_aviation#Table before deciding to create a standalone article. --Marc Lacoste (talk) 16:23, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
