Some of the article content, in particular the test-flight preparations and descriptions, seem to be partial copies or too-close a paraphrasis ofthis non-free content. The tone in the test flight sections is promotional, non-neutral and oddly peacockish. How much of this material is a straight lift from Warsitz' son's book on his father's career? I can't say, as I've no access to a preview ofthis English Edition, but I've an idea it would be worth checking.Haploidavey (talk)15:30, 1 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, have done a little checking. The questionable content was added in August 2009 byUser:Firstjetpilot, a currently inactive user who could also have authoredthe firstjetpilot website which in turn is copyright of Lutz Warsitz, who also holds author's copyright of his test-pilot father'sbiography. If the wikipedian Firstjetpilot and Lutz Warsitz are one and the same, is this a COI issue, a copyright issue, or a bit of both? And do the website and book count asWP:RS. Or must we lose the lot?Haploidavey (talk)23:43, 1 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
