Builders of Don's design edit

I tried to edit this page. I keep getting messages about posting my source. My source is me so how am I suppose to post it? I was the owner and builder of Hawk plans #27 and sold my project over 4 1/2 years ago. I also created and maintained Curtiss P-6E Hawk website that no longer exists because I stopped paying for it and no one wanted to take over. I know more about this airplane than anybody left alive. I have all the information as well as Don's test flight notes. This is too much trouble so after an hour, I'm done. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Savvy Jack (talkcontribs)

Generally we only accept sources that are reliable, independent and belonging to a third-party, and after they meet this strict criteria, we may consider them for inclusion. Do you have a book or website published on this source? If so you can include them on this article or propose a change here on this talkpage, so others can check your work for errors and the source for reliability.

I found the missing photos on Commons and added the best ones to the article. As explained above to add the rest of the text you need to cite a proper reference. If you have the aircraft registrations then the FAA registration website may help us. - Ahunt (talk) 00:34, 29 March 2014 (UTC)Reply
Ahunt, the results look great, thanks for all the help. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Savvy Jack (talkcontribs) 15:33, 30 March 2014 (UTC)Reply
Oh good. If you think more can be added and we have something in the way of references we can cite then please do suggest it here and we'll figure out how to incorporate it into the article. It's all about building the best encyclopedia we can! Also when you leave a comment anywhere just add ~~~~ (four tildes) and the end and it will put your name, the time and the date. It helps us keep track of who said what! - Ahunt (talk) 16:14, 30 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

In fact the main source (Purdy, Don: AeroCrafter - Homebuilt Aircraft Sourcebook, Fifth Edition, page 250. BAI Communications, 15 July 1998.) calls this "P6E Replica" and the March Field Air Museum ref calls it "P-6 Hawk, Curtis (replica)". - Ahunt (talk) 01:36, 21 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
