Reactions
How are Reactions relevant? 74.90.162.253 (talk) 02:10, 13 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Considering they were reactions from public figures regarding the crash, I would say so. - ZLEA  T \ C 02:18, 13 November 2022 (UTC)
 * It's normal for prominent figures to post reactions & for wikipedia to include them about a major accident after it happened, whether in aviation or maritime or whatsoever. Plus this can be considered standardization since most other aviation accident articles (MU5735 & PW494 for example) have already included them. SBS6577P (talk) 02:31, 13 November 2022 (UTC)

NTSB images
The images in this tweet by the NTSB are PD-USGOV, are they not? Might be useful additions there for the article, especially the third one. Mjroots (talk) 17:37, 14 November 2022 (UTC)
 * The NTSB website indicates that "graphics which involve photographs, illustrations, and other pictorial materials and images found on the NTSB website, except where copyrighted, were prepared or created by the personnel of the NTSB and their publication indicates that the NTSB has placed them in the public domain." I don't 100% know if this extends to the NTSB Twitter account. -  ZLEA  T \ C 17:59, 14 November 2022 (UTC)
 * It's really not that important, as long as the pictures were taken by NTSB employees (or any other employee of the federal government), which I think is extremely likely, they are PD. – Recoil (talk) 18:16, 14 November 2022 (UTC)
 * NTSB on flickr]. Click on a photo and it mentions specifically it in PD. Richard-of-Earth (talk) 06:21, 16 November 2022 (UTC)

Title of event
FYI for all future editors after correcting errors elsewhere on Wikipedia, the title of the event was Wings Over Dallas, not the Wings Over Dallas Airshow (or Air Show). The words airshow or air show are not part of the title and should not be capitalized; they're descriptors added in news sources to clarify the nature of the event.

Dan Ragan's rank
In the US Navy, there is no rank of Colonel, abbreviated as "Col." The US Navy equivalent rank is Captain. I looked for clarification online, but the news articles that were most likely referenced were also erroneous. Perhaps it would be better to identify Ragan as a "US Navy Veteran", as opposed to the incorrect rank of US Navy Colonel. 75.108.131.84 (talk) 05:24, 19 June 2023 (UTC)


 * He was a "Colonel" in the Commemorative Air Force, all its members hold that "rank". That's where the confusion stems from. I'll change it. – Recoil (talk) 13:41, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
