Welcome to the WikiProject Aviation Collaboration of the Month! This effort seeks to identify articles within the scope of the WikiProject— airports, aircraft and everything in between—that require improvement. Every month, a single article will be selected as the collaboration and everyone will work to improve it as much as possible.
Nominating articles
To nominate an article, add
=[[Name of article]]=
Nomination text. ~~~~
Support
- ~~~~
Comments
at the bottom of the list of candidates, filling in the name of the article and the nomination text (which should indicate why the article would benefit from a collaboration and what needs to be improved).
Please remember to add
to the {{tl|WPAVIATION}} project banner at the top of the article's talk page (see the project banner instructions for more details on the exact syntax).
Current collaboration
The next collaboration will be selected on Friday, February 1 2008. The current time is {{CURRENTTIME}}, {{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTDAY}}, {{CURRENTYEAR}}.
Maintenance
At the beginning of every month, a new collaboration article should be selected. This should generally be the candidate with the most support (and the oldest candidate in case of a tie).
To archive the current collaboration:
- Remove

Already a B-class article. A little brush up could get this to FA-class easily.. Trevor MacInnis (Contribs) 18:36, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

- User:Emt147, although shouldn't we do the Avro Lancaster first?
Comments
- User:Removebeforeflight More information is needed on this page instead the list of different versions.
- User:Petebutt More references would elevate this article well above B-class - anyone have sources? I have but they are 3,000 miles away.Petebutt (talk) 18:39, 1 December 2011 (UTC)

Several descriptions in the article are wrong, primarily the text describing turbofan and turbojet engines. For example, the turbofan fan description refers to it as having a "low pressure compressor acts as a fan", when in reality that is a turbojet. A turbofan has a first stage fan to drive in airflow. The attached image is also one of a turbojet and not a turbofan.

Juan and Eduardo were the Mexican equivalent of the Wright Brothers. A little cleanup and referencing is needed to make a better presentation of the efforts of these aviation pioneers.

Student group at Penn State want to raise the standard of this article. The heart is there, could use a little bit of work on the editing.

This article is quite messy, specially the reference formatting. I think the company is fairly transparent about its operation, so I think this article is an FA potential. Sp33dyphil (Talk) (Contributions)(Feed back needed @ Talk page) 23:55, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
