I'll get to this shortly--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 16:58, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The US term of copyright for unpublished photographs with unknown authors is 120 years. You need to find publication info and/or photographer info for both File:Supermarine Nighthawk at Woolston.jpg and File:Pemberton Billing PB-29.jpg Y Done. AM
Consolidate the 3 paragraphs in the lede. They all relate to the aircraft. Y Done. AM
The gunner with a Lewis gun was enclosed above the third wing. Awkward, rephrase. Y Done. AM
Link written off. Y Done. AM
By authorities I presume that you mean the RNAS? Y Done. AM
The 75 mph speed of the Nighthawk vs. the 60 mph speed of the Zeppelin doesn't seem to imply that the former was outclassed. More context is needed here.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 08:21, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure what's going on here, as hardly any German airships built ever reached a speed of 70mph.^[1] I'll investigate further. Amitchell125 (talk) 09:28, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I can only imagine the underpowering is referring to aircraft's slow rate of climb (10,000 feet in an hour) rather than the speed of 70mph. Amitchell125 (talk) 17:17, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That's what I was thinking as well, but unless you have a source that explicitly says as much... Barring that I'd suggest rephrasing so that the speed differential doesn't seem to be the cause of it's suckitude.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 17:47, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

@Sturmvogel 66: Any more comments to come? The above have been addressed, I think. Amitchell125 (talk) 18:24, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I didn't see that you'd addressed the problem after my comment.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 18:56, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
