Talk:TWA Flight 159

WP:AVTRIV is a guideline and "should be treated with common sense and the occasional exception". Apparently Chris, you feel a need to delete information that is in no way harmful to an article. There is evidence that more than a handful of people would be interested in the connection, however small, between the two flights. There was an article in Time magazine which commented on it and at the time of the accidents, in the 1960's, there was a lot of concern about the safety of CVG. The guidline also indications an editor should normally put a discussion on the talk page. The suggestion would be to instead label the section "facts pending integration". I don't know why you feel compelled to go ahead and delete. Mfields1 01:38, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

 * It's 40 years later. If the NTSB had found a connection between the incident in Kansas and this crash, they would have mentioned it by now. To imply that there is a connection in the absence of anything explicitly stating such is no more relevant to this article (and just as much a violation of WP:OR) than saying "Flights with the number 191 in the US are doomed" is (which was deleted from Comair Flight 5191 on the exact same grounds). And -- ironically (used in the proper sense of the term "irony") -- you even explicitly stated that TWA Flight 128's crash was "totally unrelated". So now you're mad at me because I agreed with you? That doesn't make sense.--chris.lawson 01:56, 11 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Who said I was mad at you? LOL.  Mfields1 02:04, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Kansas incident? Is there a link to that? My interest has been piqued Bucky winter soldier (talk) 13:29, 6 October 2023 (UTC)

Why does TWA Flight 157 redirect here? -- Mûĸĸâĸûĸâĸû  (blah?)  18:07, 10 January 2011 (UTC)

Where is TWA's culpability?
In reading the article, I was left with the impression that the TWA captain's lack of calling out V1 was the primary cause of the accident. After all, the Delta pilot correctly stated he was "clear of the runway". As even the FAA didn't have a clearly defined meaning of that term, and as the presence of jet fumes was not previously regarded within its meaning, I don't see how Delta shouldered all the blame. Unless I missed some point, it would seem TWA should have been at least somewhat (if not fully) culpable for aborting take-off when the plane had exceeded V1.

 * The NTSB accident report indicated that the culpability lay with the TWA crew for their inability to abort their takeoff properly. It was only the minority report that blamed Delta. With regards to the civil cases against Delta Air Lines, you'd have to read the proceedings to figure out the logic involved there; regardless the official position, per the NTSB was that it was the TWA crew's fault. -- Mûĸĸâĸûĸâĸû (blah?) 16:25, 12 June 2011 (UTC)

Trivia?
"The passenger who died was married to the brother-in-law of Rabbi Edgar Magnin."
