Military or civil?

Why is this classified under Category:Military of Hong Kong if it is not a civil unit?--Huaiwei 14:37, 1 May 2005 (UTC)Reply

If the article on RHKAAF, GFS's predecessor, is separated, then this article will not be categorised under a military category anymore. — Insta ntnood 14:48, May 1, 2005 (UTC)

Then it should obviously be seperated as soon as possible. Classifying this article here is highly erroneous and misleading.--Huaiwei 15:22, 1 May 2005 (UTC)Reply

The article has the details. — Insta ntnood 15:25, May 1, 2005 (UTC)

Sikorsky S-76

Latest comment: 18 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

According to this article, the GFS operated 6 Sikorsky S-76 helicopters. According to the article Royal Hong Kong Auxiliary Air Force, the RHKAAF transferred 8 S-76 helicopters (6 S-76A and 2 S-76C) to the GFS in 1993. Anybody know what happened to the extra 2. -- 91.84.39.186 (talk) 14:07, 4 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Shouldn't this article note that the GFS is subject to US sections? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 45.64.242.223 (talk) 06:37, 21 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Revert of Edit in "History" Section

User:Citobun: Noted that you reverted my edits to the captioned section. Given that your edit summary "Whitewashing" is quite vague, and your revert removed multiple points contained in the edit, I am not sure which part of the edit you object to specifically.

I invite you to clarify this so we may have a discussion on how we can refine the edit.

Thank you Carter00000 (talk) 13:52, 28 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
