[edit] Change in Wing Data
The previous version (27 Dec 2007) states that the wings had a negative angle of incidence. I believe this to be an error; the picture seems to depict negative dihedral, so I am guessing that should be the correct term. A negative angle of incidence would mean the fuselage would have to fly much more nose-up . . I am going to change this term. If somebody (who is familiar with the actual airplane in Argentina) knows that I have changed this in error, please feel free to change it back to the previous wording.

[edit] Indigenous design
The comment "Design Team and work imported from Nazi Germany. Not an indigenous aircraft." shown in one of the article edits, IMHO is not totally correct.
I guess that the reason is that the term "Indigenous design" is quite vague. Albeit is is true that the main designer was Kurt Tank and a team of german engineers, it is also true that the Pulqui II is a different aircraft to those desigend by Tank in "Nazi Germany". It was developed in Argentina, with support of the argentinian Air Force, and participation of argentinian engineers and workers. It was a new design, not a variant of a previous one; nor was built under license (as was for example the "Curtiss Hawk 75O").
So for me, sounds pretty "indigenous". Kind regards, DPdH (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 09:16, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
