Àdàkọ:Infobox Aircraft Type/doc

Usage

This template does not function alone; it must follow {{Infobox Aircraft Begin}}

This template provides general data on types (and subtypes) of aircraft, but not technical specifications. It is built in a modular fashion allowing it to be combined with other infoboxes, in particular, {{Infobox Aircraft Career}}.

{{Infobox Aircraft Begin}}, this template, (and {{Infobox Aircraft Career}}, if applicable) must be enclosed by {| and |} that enclose a wiki-table (see Help:Tables).

Examples

For an article on an aircraft type, use:

{|{{Infobox Aircraft Begin
 |parameters go here
}}{{Infobox Aircraft Type
 |parameters go here
}}
|}

For a case where the only example built of a particular aircraft type also had an individually noteworthy career (eg, The Spirit of St. Louis, use:

{|{{Infobox Aircraft Begin
 |parameters go here
}}{{Inbobox Aircraft Type
 |parameters go here
}}{{Inbobox Aircraft Career
 |parameters go here
}}
|}

Parameters

type

The aircraft's role, eg: airliner, military trainer aircraft, Agricultutal aircraft

national origin

The country where the aircraft was first manufactured. Use the main nation (ie. UK), not constituent country (England); don't use "EU". List collaborative programs of only 2 or 3 nations; for more than 3, use "Multi-national

manufacturer

The firm which manufactured the aircraft.

designer

The person or persons who designed the aircraft. Only appropriate for single designers, not project leaders

first flight

The date that the aircraft first flew. If this hasn't happened, skip this field - don't speculate.

introduction

Date the aircraft entered or will enter military or revenue service

retired

Date the aircraft left military or revenue service. If vague or more than a few dates, skip this

status

Status of the programme, e.g. "Prototypes only", "Abandoned project". In most cases, redundant; use sparingly

primary user

list only one user; for military aircraft, this is a nation or a service arm. Please DON'T add those tiny flags, as they limit horizontal space.

more users

Limited to three in total; separate using


produced

Years in production (eg. 1970-1999) if still in active use but no longer built

number built

Number of flight capable aircraft completed.

program cost

Total program cost

unit cost

Incremental or flyaway cost for military or retail price for commercial aircraft

developed from

The aircraft which formed the basis for this aircraft

variants with their own articles

Variants OF this aircraft

Must be included in every stack. This template carries the name, image, image caption, and formatting for the rest of the stack.

{{Infobox Aircraft Type}}

General data fields relevant to an aircraft type (or subtype), such as role, manufacturer, number produced, date of first flight (but not technical specifications)

{{Infobox Aircraft Career}}

Data fields relevant to an individually significant airframe, such as construction number, registration number, military serial, current preservation status.

{{Infobox Aircraft Engine}}

General data fields relevant to an aircraft engine, such as type, manufacturer, major applications (but not technical specifications)

{{Seriesbox Aircraft Categories}}

Non-parameterised seriesbox for broad categories of aircraft, such as airship, helicopter, glider.
