Talk:Aero Flight 311

Copyedit
Thanks for the copyedit Blood Red Sandman. Also 62.237.141.27 added information about pilot Hattinen being a World War II ace. It is correct, checking from List of World War II aces from Finland. Interesting, I was not aware this was the case. Too bad these improvements were not prior to main page dyk. :) --Pudeo⺮ 09:26, 1 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Your welcome. I had tried to make time before the DYK, but couldn't. After that I kept either forgetting or having something else to do. I must say, though, I'm amased that they could try to fly the plane like that, even if they were drunk... I mean, it's a long way to get out of flight parametres, even if it's easy to get out of safe flight parametres. Blood Red Sandman  (Talk)   (Contribs) 11:35, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

Blood alcohol level
141.0.10.35 changed the blood alcohol levels from 2 ‰ to 0,2 ‰ because "if he had a 2% BAC he'd be in a fucking coma". Yes, but I can verify 2 and 1,56 BAC from the original source. It says the group in which the two pilots were drank 16 bottles of beer, 7 ginigrogs, 900 grams of cognac. But of course, the two men didn't drink this all by themselves. 2 BAC would be a coma for many, but not for alcoholics. A taxi driver was caught with 5,23 ‰ BAC at Helsinki-Vantaa, which the police describes as extraordinary. So even higher levels are possible for heavy drinkers. I returned the original figures. --Pudeo' 16:17, 27 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Okay, I now understand this was a misundertanding between ‰ and %. The captain's BAC was 0.2 (0.2 % or 2‰). I made clarifications in the article. It was right, but now it should be more clear to American readers who use percents for blood alcohol levels. --Pudeo' 07:45, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

Kronoby-Vaasa route?
Kronoby to Vaasa is only 100km. Why were there scheduled flights for such a short distance?Bill (talk) 02:52, 22 August 2019 (UTC)


 * as part of a Kronoby–Vaasa–Helsinki route. As you can see from this image from a 1961 timetable, Finnair actually had quite an impressive point-to-point domestic network back then. Kokkola (which is the city closest to Kronoby; marked on the timetable) is a medium-sized city by Finnish standards, and still, they had one connection to Helsinki via Vaasa and another via Kauhava and Tampere, plus a flight to Oulu with further connections from there. Nowadays, most airports in Finland only have services to Helsinki or, if they don't have enough traffic to fill an aircraft by themselves, they are paired with another city to form a triangle route. Kokkola (Kronoby) has one, Helsinki–Kokkola–Kemi–Helsinki, and even that is not operated by Finnair themselves but their regional subsidiary Norra. --Lentokonefani (talk) 23:00, 15 January 2020 (UTC)

Name
I don't think the article title should have "Aero O/Y" on it. The "O/Y", or "Oy" as it would now more often be written, is not much more than the Finnish equivalent of LLC, and thus the older name with just "Aero" was better. It's like if we had an article titled "American Airlines, Inc. Flight 191". &mdash; S URJECTION / T / C / L / 14:18, 5 December 2021 (UTC)
 * I agree with you, and this has been discussed before. I'm going to change it back accordingly. Buttons0603 (talk) 16:39, 1 January 2022 (UTC)
