XV-1 designation[edit]

Wouldn't this sentence Finally, the aircraft became the first vehicle in the convertiplane series as the XV-1. refer to the US Air Force's pre-1962 designation system? I think the Air Force was the only service to use dashes in its designations. Thanks. -Fnlayson (talk) 21:10, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Army used dashes also; H-13, H-25, H-40, etc. --Born2flie (talk) 02:16, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Reverted edit[edit]

Hey

I added a hyperlink to the V-22 Osprey page under a subheader of "Modern day aircraft with comparable configuration" which I also added specifically for the new hyperlink entry. Another user by the name of BilCat reverted the change, stating "actually it's a completely different configuration - tiltrotor vs. compound gyroplane". Now I'm not an expert in this field, so I believe him, and of course false information has no place on Wikipedia, so I don't challenge the revert. However, I still feel there is a connection between the two, no? Like maybe not comparable configuration, but rather a shared concept, of combining helicopter hover ability with high speeds of airplanes? Maybe my phrasing was a little off? -Seth Knops (talk) 16:05, 10 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
