Section Not Related to the Bell X-1[edit]

This article is supossed to be about the Bell X-1 aircraft and not about a model.

Parallel development section has nothing in direct or in-direct relation with the Bell X-1. This sub-section reads more like an attempt to diminish the Bell X-1 and is completely out of place. This section renders the article as not being neutral. I believe the entire section under Parallel development should be deleted or used in a article on the Miles M.52.

The article on the Miles M.52 has no Parallel development section leading to the Bell X-1! Duke Proximan (talk) 04:26, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This section was created in 2016 by creating a new header in the 'Design and development' section and using existing text, the section had relevance, citing a collaboration deal, which is not in the current version of the article. The section should be restored to the last version that contained clear relevance. Nimbus (Cumulus nimbus floats by) 17:39, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
