I saw your note about having a photo of this aircraft. If you own the rights to the photo you can upload to to Wikimedia Commons and then it can be used on all language versions of Wikipedia. Let me know if you have any problems with this! - Ahunt (talk) 21:52, 8 December 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks for adding the photos. I moved a couple of them up the page into the info box. Looks good! - Ahunt (talk) 12:01, 9 December 2011 (UTC)
My pleasure. I'm not an editor, so good that you can finish it. As a kid I knew these men and my father was a soaring pilot, so we were at these competitions, and I have all this soaring stuff... I added photos to the Dick Schreder and Paul Schweizer pages (Schweizer 1-29) too, and am considering compiling one for Benjamin w Greene, a famous pilot we knew well and who is still alive.Dudley0415 (talk) 15:28, 9 December 2011 (UTC)
- I saw those other photos, too, great stuff. If you want to work on an article about Greene, do have a read of WP:BLP first. - Ahunt (talk) 18:58, 9 December 2011 (UTC)
Glider (sailplane)
editI reversed your edit on this article. Where I live and in several other countries it is called "gliding". You are, of course, right about American terminology. JMcC (talk) 17:14, 23 April 2012 (UTC)
