Jettison device

Why is the "original patent for the Jettison device" displayed on the page? The jettison device isn't even mentioned on the page. - ZLEA (talk) 05:53, 26 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Mountain lion

P-55 is also the name of a noteworthy (or at least much-covered-in-the-press

mountain lion just found dead in the Santa Monica Mountains. Fwiw, I think P in that case must be short for puma. --Haruo (talk) 13:16, 26 July 2018 (UTC)[reply

@Haruo: How is that relevant to an aircraft article? - BilCat (talk) 01:27, 27 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
It's not, of course. But maybe I am not the only person who googles "P-55" looking for information about a particular, and particularly noteworthy, mountain lion only to be directed to this article. So it may be of interest to some who come here. I put it in the Talk page because it's not on the topic of the article. If there are other uses of P-55 in other fields than aviation and zoography, perhaps a disambiguation page would be in order. --Haruo (talk) 14:32, 4 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Haruo: OK, thanks for explaining it. As far as I can tell we don't have an article on that mountain lion, so until one is created, or until it's covered in another article, such as Cougar or North American cougar, there's not much else we can do about it. As for a DAB page, it would usually go at the un-hyphened title, which would be P55, as with P51 and P59. We have articles on HMNZS Wellington (P55) and Intel P55, which would also be listed there once a DAB page is created. - BilCat (talk) 03:56, 5 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
