::::Nothing has been deleted yet but it does sound like a hagiography. Some phrases leave me confused though, what exactly does "they picked and swated and destroyed" mean? [[User:BrianCo|BrianCo]] 23:25, 20 May 2007 (EDT)
:::::OK, I spoke too soon. Someone deleted '''all''' my hard work as well! ;) [[User:BrianCo|BrianCo]] 23:37, 20 May 2007 (EDT)
Just a thought...wouldn't Austria also have a Luftwaffe?[[User:AlanE|AlanE]] 05:12, 22 May 2007 (EDT)
::Possibly because it is a German word and many Ausrtians do speak German.--[[User:Will N.|Will N.]] 10:37, 22 May 2007 (EDT)
Just a suggestion, might want to remove a few of the pictures until this article gets expanded. I'd say leave the one of the insignia. --[[User:Colest|Colest]] 10:45, 22 May 2007 (EDT)
Will N; ALL Austrians speak German. That's the point. The Luftwaffe (which is German for airforce) can be the airforce of any German speaking nation. Don't mind me...[[User:AlanE|AlanE]] 15:44, 22 May 2007 (EDT)
== No rewrite but more info ==
I haven't rewritten the article but I've added more info. And yes the Austrians do speak German and no their air force is not called the Luftwaffe, it's called the '''Luftstreitkräfte'''[http://www.bmlv.gv.at/sk/lusk/index.shtml]. This is an older term; it's actually more of a literal translation of Air Force. [[User:Hannibal ad portas|Hannibal ad portas]] 00:37, 30 May 2007 (EDT)
: Here is some more info on the Austrian Air Force [http://www.bmlv.gv.at/omz/ausgaben/artikel.php?id=282]. It's a very interesting article about the formation of the air force and the politics of acceptng US aid in the post war period.
