Talk:2019 Saha Airlines Boeing 707 crash

Casualties
The number of dead in the lede is 15, yet the infobox and the main article states 16. I am on my mobile and some of the cites will not load. Can someone clarify please? Thanks. The joy of all things (talk) 20:54, 14 January 2019 (UTC)

Fath Air Base
Where is Fath Air Base? Is it at any of the places listed at the DAB page Fath? Martinevans123 (talk) 11:50, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
 * This source says: "That airport is some 10 kilometers (6.2 miles) southwest of Payam." Martinevans123 (talk) 13:24, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Some sources name it as "Fat'h Air Base". Mjroots (talk) 13:42, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes, as it's under the control of the Revolutionary Guard, it's not really a normal civilian "airport" as such. I assume it's the same place as featured here. I guess "Fat'h" is the more accurate English transcription. But I don't see it listed at List of Iranian Air Force bases. Martinevans123 (talk) 13:48, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Thank you, Mjroots, for creating a new article so quickly. Martinevans123 (talk) 19:19, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
 * It's a start, but well outside my area of expertise. Hopefully some MILHIST members will be able to improve on it. Mjroots (talk) 19:27, 16 January 2019 (UTC)

Lot of people?
Maybe it's me, but it seems like 16 people is a lot for a cargo flight.? Is this usual? Circéus (talk) 06:07, 18 January 2019 (UTC)
 * It's not usual, but it's what sources say. As the aircraft was carrying a cargo of meat, most of those on board may have been there to load and unload the cargo. Mjroots (talk) 06:37, 18 January 2019 (UTC)
