I'm looking for the best picture or any informations about the KAF's U-6 (Beaver). It seem that the KAF had 3 aircrafts.
But in 1971, during the viet cong's sapper attack at the Pochentong Air Base,at least 1 Beaver was destroyed.In 1972
at leat 1 Beaver was refurbished with a new engine.

Hi @Jacqke: can you please confirm the spelling of this instrument? It is spelled pey au in the title, but it is spelled pei au throughout the body of the article. If it is pei au, the page will need to moved to reflect that spelling. Thank you. Citrivescence (talk) 07:53, 26 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
@Citrivescence: There isn't, to the best of my knowledge, a standardized way of writing this in English. Google translate produced both while I was playing with the article. I notice that many words have multiple spellings when writers have put the foreign words into English. Please use your best judgment, as it is likely that Wikipedia will be influential in the way it's spelled in the future. Jacqke (talk) 13:15, 27 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
I noticed the article is under review. I would mention that this is one of the Cambodia culture's main instruments, of considerable importance to that culture. Jacqke (talk) 13:21, 27 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
I am taking a break from editing for a while, but wanted to add onething here, for others to use or myself when I return. The reed bundle has a plant identified by a printed academic source. However, I have been told by a researcher in Cambodia that there were errors in that source. Anther source identified a grass species as the reed plant. That is an old scientific name link to that detail. The new scientific name for that plant appears to be Scolochloa festucacea. More research needs to be done to confirm, and I left the sourced identification as is for now.Jacqke (talk) 14:32, 27 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
@Jacqke: Thank you for the clarification. I thought the translation issue was probably the reason for the multiple spellings but wanted to check with you. I'm going to keep the title as is and note that it is sometimes spelled pei au. I placed the review tag so that other editors wouldn't disturb it while I was investigating this issue. It is well sourced and I plan to mark it as reviewed later today. Citrivescence (talk) 17:56, 27 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
