The link to the Fouga Magister was red, and it seemed a little weird to me the fact that the T-24 link was blue... but T-24 redirects to a soviet WWII tank, not to an aircraft. So I removed the T-24 link. I also fixed the Fouga Magister link, it is working now.

Squadron vs. Flight

[edit]

By all accounts and formalities, the EDA (Air Demonstration Squadron) is a squadron. However, its traditional name in Brazilian parlance is Esquadrilha da Fumaça, which translates to English as "Smoke Flight" (not as in "flight, the activity of flying", but as in "flight, the small amount of aircraft"). Should the article not be renamed? And, if so, should we not redirect from the Smoke Squadron links all over? Please bring some feedback. SrAtoz (talk) 15:08, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The article should be renamed "Esquadrilha da Fumaça", in my opinion. I personally hate the common practice on Brazil-related articles of translating everything to English awkwardly. 189.27.21.153 (talk) 01:19, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
