Unrealized space flight is a 'tall tale'

[edit]

The only evidence that there was ever a plan to fly this in space is a minor source otherwise undocumented. It is one man's fantasy -- more science fiction than real space history. The section should be deleted or greatly reduced in length. 70.215.57.84 (talk) 21:03, 29 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

HL - what does it mean?

[edit]

Several articles here explain that HL stand for Horizontal Landing. I have read that it stood for Heavy Lifting, to contrast with the M2F2 et al. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:8003:E414:3A01:38EF:CEFA:F7EB:A5E (talk) 06:54, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Wingspan?

[edit]

Obviously for practical reasons it is labeled wingspan, but the HL-10 is a lifting body aircraft, so wouldn't it be more reasonable to label it as width instead? (or more humorously just ____span but that's not necessary) Cheers! <3 Taffy boeing b 17 (talk) 16:36, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
