Talk:Avro York

Churchill and the Avro York
I've removed the statement that Churchill flew in an Avro York to the Yalta Conference because the official biography by Martin Gilbert states that he flew to this conference in a Skymaster (vol. vii of 'Winston S. Churchill'). If anyone has a citation for him having been flown in the York, I would be interested to know about it as I have tried to verify this without success.Churchill Archives Centre 14:07, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

Accidents and Incidents section
Listing every and any accident and incident is not necessary and makes the list a completely overwrought affair. If no one objects, I will prune the list to only hull-losses and fatal accidents. FWiW Bzuk (talk) 04:28, 22 December 2010 (UTC).


 * The guide for inclusion allows fatal accidents and hull losses and I suspect nearly all of these are hull losses so really should be included. Perhaps just list the fatal accidents and split the rest into a sub-article. MilborneOne (talk) 08:32, 22 December 2010 (UTC)


 * I have trimmed the list to the 30 fatal accidents for now, still looking at a daughter article. MilborneOne (talk) 08:58, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
 * This looks great right now, still very convoluted style of repeating citations which is not necessary. FWiW Bzuk (talk) 14:06, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I defer to you expertise on citations I just try and leave enough information not to cause trouble in the future if it ever goes for a ga review etc. MilborneOne (talk) 18:03, 22 December 2010 (UTC)

Trivia
re: "South African leader Jan Smuts also used a York as personal transport." I've heard that this particular York was sold to a private operator "Trek Airways" in the early fifties. Elper (talk) 22:08, 9 February 2013 (UTC)
