Aircraft exhibits

edit

I have added a new section to the article with a tabulated list of selected aircraft on display. This is an experiment to try to combine detailed notable contents of a museum directly with images of them, perhaps eliminating the need for a separate image gallery. Initially, I have only inserted one link to a relevant Commons image, but many more planned. I'll be grateful for any comments so far. Also, perhaps the article should be moved to the more common and concise name Museo del Aire (Spain)? MTIA PeterWD (talk) 13:02, 22 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

Proposed move to Museo del Aire

edit

I propose to move the article to "Museo del Aire", since that is the more common title in many references I can find. On web search engines, it also gets about ten times more hits than the clumsy anglicised "Aeronautics and Astronautics Museum of Spain". IMHO, English speaking enthusiasts already overwhelmingly use the summary version of the Spanish title. At present, Museo del Aire (Spain) is a redirect, and Museo del Aire is a disambiguation page, but I propose to drop the (Spain) qualifier for the main title, and deal with disambiguation via a simple "See also" header pointing to Museo del Aire (Cuba). I'll allow about 7 days for any comments here.PeterWD (talk) 22:07, 12 March 2012 (UTC)Reply
