See drop-down box for suggested article edit guidelines:

Be bold - if you know something about Cornwall then put it in! We value your contributions and don't be afraid if your spelling isn't great as there are plenty of spelling and grammar experts on clean-up duty!
Articles on settlements in Cornwall should be written using the standard set of headings approved by the UK geography WikiProject's guideline How to write about settlements.
At WikiProject Cornwall we subscribe to the policies laid down by Wikipedia - particularly civility and consensus building. We are aware that the wording on Cornish entries can sometimes be a contentious topic, especially those concerning geography. You don't have to agree with everything but there is no excuse for rudeness and these things are best solved through consensus building and compromise. For more information see WP:CornwallGuideline.
These pages are not platforms for political discussion. Issues relating to Cornish politics should be restricted to those pages that directly deal with these issues (such as Constitutional status of Cornwall, Cornish nationalism, etc) and should not overflow into other articles.
Most of all have fun editing - that's the reason we all do this, right?!

Weight limit of 400kg

Latest comment: 1 year ago2 comments2 people in discussion

This doesn't make sense. I checked out the source, but if the pylon was originally designed to carry a 5th non-operating engine, it would have a weight far greater than 400kg. I have to believe that the source is incorrect. Checking out https://virginorbit.com/technology/ I found that 300-500kg is the typical weight of the payload, not counting the two stage rocket that is dropped from the 747. --rogerd (talk) 23:45, 18 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

The pylon limit design load includes the weight of the launch vehicle itself (LauncherOne / two-stage rocket) while the payload refers to the load exclusive of its vehicle e.g. the cubesats themselves. I agree that the source and/or wording should be changed to be consistent with either the pylon load or the payload. Do note that, unfortunately, the payload weight is no longer currently (as of this posting) relevant as Stratolaunch only acquired the modified 747 itself and not the launch vehicle technology. 47.34.176.58 (talk) 21:48, 4 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
