Talk:Aeroplane

Point of contention, but my fiancé who is seated right next to me at the time I am writing this, is well learned in history, and WWII is something that not very many history scholars or older people forget, at least. So: Those goggles and hats that the Aeroplane pilots wear.... they're not specifically British. Every faction that fought in WWII wore them; in fact, every fighter pilot wore them. Look at this for instance. Flight helmet page on WP Now the design of the aircraft, to him at least, suggests it's more inspired by a Russian build, than an actual Spitfire (if that's what everyone's thinking). The paint especially. Some might say the paint job looks like a Spitty's, but it's much more muted, and a Spitty's nose is rounder. It's just me nitpicking here, but just saying: the point I'm trying to drive home is that the design and the flight helmet usage do not suggest that it is a British thing. It's a cartoonish depiction of many features of aircraft from decades past, coming together. So if anyone wants to come and correct me for not saying it's a British thing, or modifying the description....... well, you've got this block of text to take into account. There are some things even the stars cannot tell me. • TroisNyxÉtienne — 18:15, 7 May 2015 (UTC)
