Infobox

Is there a retirement year to add to the infobox?
- None that I've been able to find. I suspect sometime in 1915 based on the small numbers built.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 09:57, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Body

Lowercase "Operational history" in the header
Is there a date/year the aircraft was retired?
Rest looks good

Sources

All sources look reliable

Images

Uses fair use, but I found the same image on Flickr which could be uploaded to replace the free use image. This similar image of the same aircraft was confirmed by a Commons administrator which was uploaded from the same Flickr account, the San Diego Air and Space Museum Archive.
- Thanks for that; I'd searched Google images without success for a copyright-free image, but it didn't turn up this one. I'll have to bookmark the SDSM for later use.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 11:55, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Improved to Good Article status by Sturmvogel 66 (talk). Nominated by Onegreatjoke (talk) at 15:34, 29 March 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Friedrichshafen FF.19; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

article was recently promoted to GA, is long enough and is within policy. The hook is long enough and interesting. QPQ is complete. Hook is cited by an offline source which is unavailable to me. Assume it is good. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 22:41, 29 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Specs

"Propellers: 2-bladed" -- Should be singular; it had one propeller. – Sca (talk) 12:15, 18 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

True, but the template won't let me use it in the singular form.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 17:15, 18 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
