Assessment comment

The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:Boeing XB-39 Superfortress/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.

I rated it start mostly because of the paucity of text. I invite other editors to raise this article to B class if they feel that it contains all the information it possibly could about this project. As a one-off venture, it is obviously low priority. Karl Dickman ^talk 19:06, 9 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Specifications need to be corrected or verified

The performance numbers listed for the B-39 are so much greater than for the the basic B-29 as to be unbelievable, especially considering that the -39 engines are less powerful (2,100 vs. 2,200). Since there is no source listed, it is not presently possible to verity or disprove the data.Lowerunit (talk) 02:58, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
