Some of the technical details available

Tech specs

It appears it has tech specs now. Should the notice be removed?

Nicknames

The NATO nickname belongs, as it does for every Soviet aircraft. These were official designations.
What's the source for the (mis-spelled) claimed Soviet nickname Galera? Very few Soviet aircraft had official nicknames and I will continue to remove it unless a source is cited. - Emt147 ^Burninate! 01:58, 11 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Brakechute?

When did they stop making the Tu-134 with brakechute? RGDS Alexmcfire

Rest room porthole

The one time I flew a TU-134 was around 1998, from Belgrade to Prague. It was the last revenue flight of the final Soviet-built plane in the CSA Airlines fleet. Which is why we flew low over the arrival runway before aborting the landing. It was a photo op, though the Serbian white-knuckle flyer I was sitting next to was kinda freaked. Among this plane's unique features was the small circular window in the rest room, something I've never seen on a commercial airliner. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:18E:C400:66F2:B120:C6D1:FAEC:98F0 (talk) 21:38, 9 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

1st Soviet airliner with international certification?

"The Tu-134 was the first Soviet airliner to receive international certification from the International Civil Aviation Organization, which permitted it to be used on international routes." This claim is false or needs clarification. Tu-104 was in use on international routes before Tu-134. Did Tu-104 not have the same certification or not seems irrelevant. The claim is either incorrect or irrelevant. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.253.238.230 (talk) 06:01, 30 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comecon or COMECON?

Really dumb question, I am just a newcomer (and I am having problems navigating the discussion pages, doesn't matter though), but isn't COMECON supposed to be all caps? Thank you.A-curious-child (talk) 12:41, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The article is located at Comecon, while COMECON is just a redirect. If you want to debate which is correct for the main title, you will have to take that up at Talk:Comecon. - Ahunt (talk) 13:15, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Putting aside the capitalization problem, can you explain why I should not use redirects? Thank you. A-curious-child (talk) 03:56, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, not exactly "shouldn't", but what was wrong with my edit in the page? Please explain in layman terms if possible, thank you. A-curious-child (talk) 03:57, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Links to redirects are acceptable, but as I said in my edit summary, "it doesn't make sense to remove a direct link and replace it with a redirect." - Ahunt (talk) 04:05, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
