Template:Infobox aircraft type/doc

Usage
This template does not function alone; it must follow Infobox aircraft begin

This template provides general data on types (and subtypes) of aircraft, but not technical specifications. It is built in a modular fashion allowing it to be combined with other infoboxes, in particular, Infobox aircraft career.

Infobox aircraft begin, this template, (and Infobox aircraft career, if applicable) must be enclosed by  and

For a case where the only example built of a particular aircraft type also had an individually noteworthy career (eg, The Spirit of St. Louis, use:
