Hey Bthebest, do plan on updating the pictures on the home page at some point? If not with new pictures then at least fixing the aircraft links? The Cessna A185F link in [[For Your Eyes Only]] is broken, and the Eurocopter EC665 Tiger in [[GoldenEye]], Sikorsky S-42A in [[Now, Voyager]], and De Havilland DH.98 Mosquito in [[633 Squadron]] all now have categories.

Re: Top Gun

Actually, they use both the two-seat F-5F and the single-seat F-5E in that film. I think you can also see another F-5E in US Navy Aggressor colors during the briefing in the hangar where Goose flips Kelly McGillis' character the bird. I have a scale model of and F-5E made to look like a MiG-28 from that film. I used to watch it constantly as a kid. Orca1 9904 22:37, 10 June 2010 (UTC)

Code

That code you are trying might just take some time is all... Tleeg 11:27, 21 June 2010 (UTC)

Spooks

Yes I have series one. I wasn't on here at the time but I usually made captures for any aircraft even then. I don't seem to have anything saved so I'm not sure if there was anything. If you watch it and find anything then feel free to add it to the page. I'm on to Series Six now. Sandie 14:11, 4 August 2010 (BST)

Spam

Nice job on the spammers Tim! Thank you. Tleeg 07:53, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Love this site. Will soon learn commands and ways. Until now You guys have to update identified unidentifies ;) I wrote comments in discussion pages(as You know)) of movies with unidentified A/C´s. Some of them are very tough.. Especially 1WW. But we will crack them ;;)) Just a matter of time

Re: Next Steps

I guess we should. I don't want anyone to get upset, but we do need guidelines/rules. Thanks for your help with this. - Tobin Lee 17:47, 30 January 2011 (MST)

sixcyl wiki problems. Help!

Some times I'm really fed up with this wiki language and system!. In the "recent change" section, there are many times some comments on which I'd like to reply, but I never find in which page they are posted!!! ...for instance this last one: (diff | hist) . . m Ninotchka‎; 13:29 . . (+1) . . Bthebest (Talk | contribs) (PLEASE PUT ALL CATEGORY LINKS AT THE END) Can you help? Sixcyl 09:05, 13 February 2011 (MST)

Air America

A page already exists with simply "Air America". I like the idea you were running with there, but what is your suggestion with our newest thoughts? - Tobin Lee 12:03, 13 February 2011 (MST)

Users editing

Was there a problem with Professorav8r editing pages? Think there's still a problem? - Tobin Lee 09:19, 26 February 2011 (MST)

Okay. I will refresh my memory on that subject and let you know the details. - Tobin Lee 09:34, 27 February 2011 (MST)

Re: Front Page

I am not positive what it did, unless it put some more space in between. But I trust you and especially appreciate you making me aware of the change. - Tobin Lee 09:26, 16 June 2011 (MDT)

Spooks Series Ten

You going to work on that? If not I made some captures of aircraft whilst going through it for IMCDb. Sandie 18:45, 27 October 2011 (MDT)

Go for it Sandie, as you probably noticed haven't been doing much recently, too busy! Great series though, shame it had to end. Bthebest - IMPDb Administrator 09:46, 28 October 2011 (MDT)

Transformers: Dark of the Moon

I noticed you have made a lot of pages on the movies. I recently made a page for Transformers: Dark of the Moon. It would be nice if you could help finish that page.

Aircraft category list

Do you know why Category:ATR 42 appears under Category:ATR 72? not logical.Sixcyl 15:56, 29 December 2012 (MST)

Fixed. It was because I had changed to sorting order to be independent of case, but it had altered it somewhere else. Bthebest - IMPDb Administrator 17:46, 29 December 2012 (MST)

Fine! thanks.Sixcyl 14:36, 30 December 2012 (MST)

TV Series

Thanks for the feedback Tim! Sixcyl 13:17, 31 January 2013 (MST)

Video Game

i changed name of few aircarfts in video games. I found most closer match. If you have time you can check them.

Space Aircrafts

Are we listing aircrafts like Hugo Drax space station from Moonraker or International Space Station? And for GTA: San Andres, game is set in 1992 so i think AH-64 was McDonnell Douglas not Boeing.

Fictional Aircrafts

Are we list Movies/Video Games where are all aircrafts are fictional? Like Alien movies?

Turbulence

I've added a few more pictures to this article. However the sofware I am using for the screenshots (VLC media player) is making the images look 'muddy'.

I was wondering if you knew of better capture software. I hope to have pictures of the model jet fighter they used in the film up in a few days.Graham1973 20:15, 23 March 2013 (MDT)

Thanks for IDing the 747-200. I've added a couple of pictures of the model F-14 used in the film. I think that's a wrap.Graham1973 05:21, 25 March 2013 (MDT)

Another Question

Sorry for so many questions but i gotta ask Are we listed things like Soyuz-2 or Intercontinental Ballistic Missile or V2 Rockets? Mark0 30 March 2013

Picture Resizing

Since last August, the automatic resizing of the picture is broken. It's very time consuming to resize pix one by one to post them with sometimes most details lost during the process. Visitors are too frustrated by such thumb. Moreover, when an airplane is on a movie, a new categorie then seen again in another movie, we need to work three times on the same picture, uploaded it on three sizes ... We can't run like this for the eternity !
A multi-uploader too will be highly appreciated for big subjects. LVCDC 10:37, 31 January 2014 (MST)

A Few Questions

Hey, Bthebest. I was wondering if you could answer a few questions for me.

1. Are we allowed to add movies or video games that contain only fictional aircraft? I know there's already a Star Wars movie here, but I just wanted to make sure since I haven't noticed any others.

2. Are we allowed to create categories for fictional aircraft if they appear in more than one movie or video game?

3. Can commercials be added? I noticed a few recently that I thought might be good here, but I'm not sure if they're allowed or how to title them.

Thanks in advance! Corkeyandpals 22:50, 16 February 2014 (MST)

Homepage

Hey Bthebest, do plan on updating the pictures on the home page at some point? If not with new pictures then at least fixing the aircraft links? The Cessna A185F link in For Your Eyes Only is broken, and the Eurocopter EC665 Tiger in GoldenEye, Sikorsky S-42A in Now, Voyager, and De Havilland DH.98 Mosquito in 633 Squadron all now have categories.
