Merge edit

The Llama is nothing more but a lightly modified Aérospatiale Alouette II (please see the Wiki entry on that aircraft). Since this article has no more but one or two lines anyway it would be efficient to merge it with the existing Alouette II article - 24.9.10.235 06:37, 17 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

It's Lama, not Llama. DPdH (talk) 11:32, 16 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

Reinstatement edit

Reinstated the separate page as i have more than one or two lines to write. (A300st (talk) 03:16, 23 July 2008 (UTC))Reply

There is still considerable overlap between this page and the Aérospatiale Alouette II page. While most of the text and the Variants list is easily moved, the quite-lengthy "Operators" list will need to be sorted out, as none of the entries specify which variant is used. That page needs alot of work anyway, and hopefully the split will encourage editors to expand it also. - BillCJ (talk) 06:01, 23 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

In The Movies edit

Llama N13583 was used in the TV movie Birds of Prey (1973) and Llama N62250 is in the TV movie Deadly Encounter (1982). AMCKen (talk) 03:20, 30 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

It's Lama, not Llama. DPdH (talk) 11:33, 16 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
Given that Lama is French for Llama, It's understandable people may mix up the spellings, especially since both words can be pronounced the same in English. As long as it is spelled "Lama" in the article, it's OK if it gets misspelled on the talk page. :) - BilCat (talk) 13:47, 16 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

World Record edit

The article states that the world had not been broken as of 2017, but apparently it had been broken by pilot Fred North 30 years later on 2002-03-23 with an altitude of 42,500ft over South Africa. [1] Marknoble (talk) 02:22, 29 July 2018 (UTC)Reply

The Jean Boulet 12442 m record is still listed as the current absolute altitude record for rotorcraft by the FIA - [1], with there being no mention of Fred North on the FIA's website. This suggests that the FIA do not recognise North's attempt.Nigel Ish (talk) 09:20, 29 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
A similar suspicious edit was made to the Flight altitude record#Rotorcraft page on January 28, 2019. 198.166.92.192 (talk) 10:17, 11 January 2020 (UTC)Reply
