Vertipedia Notes
Vertipedia notes are brief descriptions of how and why Vertipedia works the way it does. Check back often for the latest note, or view the complete list.
Images in Vertipedia
Images can be added directly into Vertipedia or from the VFS Gallery using the Contributor functions. Adding images from the Gallery is the easier option by far. It is important that a contributor only uses images for the exact model of aircraft in question (e.g. Bell AH-1Z rather than a generic image of an AH-1). The images section for a specific aircraft aims to provide a complete view of the key characteristics of the aircraft and there is no limit to the number of images that can be used.
