Flag removed

There was absolutely no reason given for the removal of the New Zealand flag. Mackie was a New Zealander, he was a member of the RNZAF. Please do not remove this without a clear explanation. Minorhistorian (talk) 02:39, 13 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Inline Citations not needed?

Lack of inline citations is stated an issue with this page but I believe all information contained is from the biography "Spitfire Leader" - unless Wikipedia standards demand quoting the primary sources (war records?) then this issue should be eliminated.

It would be fine to use the same citation in multiple places inline. -Kj cheetham (talk) 12:37, 10 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
