On Wikipedia and the Aichi DiA:

Without offending anyone's sensibilities, I have a question regarding the article.
Though framed in controversial terms - was the information on the Susie substantially incorrect?

Just curious.

Ummm, I saw very little info on the plane itself. 95% of the article in post #1 was about Japanese wartime activities in China.

When I search info by model aircraft in a "reference" scource, I am usually looking for performance data. There is absolutely none of that there...

lol.....i've seen a number of threads posting links to this "Wiki" along with terms such as "See? this proves it!!!"

Now i know not to bother clicking on them.

A study was done comparing Wiki to Encyclopedia Britannica. Encyclopedia Britannica won but not by much.

This article states that the study was cooked in favor of Wikipedia.
