Talk:Trigana Air Flight 267

Flight Number
Normally reliable aviation sources (most notably Aviation Herald) reports the flight number as being 257, not 267.

"Indonesia's Ministry of Transport reported the flight number was TGN-257, not TGN-267 as reported earlier, the aircraft involved is PK-YRN. The Ministry advised that the names of the crew members published by the Ministry so far were in error, too. The search for the missing aircraft has been suspended for the night."

(Seems like a fair bit of ongoing confusion so this should be monitored)

Map
Locator map lacks "Papua" label. Sca (talk) 14:06, 17 August 2015 (UTC) Gey I found the coordinates but I don't have the longitudes. Any solution? These are the coordinates released by BASARNAS: 04• 49 minutes 28 secon short North 140• 29 minutes 953 secon East Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by PaPa PaPaRoony (talk • contribs) 02:45, 11 September 2015 (UTC)

"Caring person"?
Why in the world does it matter that the pilot and copilot were "caring" and "humble"? 216.241.106.56 (talk) 19:54, 18 August 2015 (UTC)

Around and about times
The Accident section states "was scheduled to land in Oksibil at about 15:16", "contact was lost with the aircraft at about 14:55" and "the crew had been expected to make contact with ground staff at Oksibil Airport at around 15:00". Three very vague timings. The following paragraph is more exact about the time a search aircraft was launched. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.156.95.130 (talk) 07:59, 19 August 2015 (UTC)

Crews have been confirmed, along with condition of aircraft.
Hey about that crew things, I just want to say that all Indonesian media, along with officials from Trigana Air Service and Sentani Airport has confirmed that those are the crew members. They even released the manifest and flying experiences to the media. If you want to know what kind of Indonesian media are reliable, here it is: About "caring", "humble".. It's relevant you can change that but about obedient and always do procedural checklist before taking off I think it's crucial knowing the pilots of santa barbara 518 didn't do that.
 * Liputan 6
 * Detik
 * metrotv
 * viva
 * sindonews
 * okezone
 * antara
 * etc

About the condition, it does crucial as in santa barbara case the navigation system didn't work while this flight was functioning normally. Thanks for your attention. — Preceding unsigned comment added by PaPa PaPaRoony (talk • contribs) 03:16, 20 August 2015 (UTC)
 * It isn't relevant to state that the airline says the aircraft was in good shape, it is for the investigators to say that. If the investigation shows that there was a fault with the aircraft, then the claim by the airline that the aircraft was in good shape would become relevant.

Flight Number again
Still seems to be some confusion re 257/267, the article body uses 267 but the article is at 257, anybody have a primary reliable source on the flight number? MilborneOne (talk) 07:50, 21 August 2015 (UTC)
 * That was a recent edit which I have just undone. I know it isn't definitive - there could have been a delay - but the airline's flight schedule shows Flight 267 departing at 1220 and arriving at 1310 each day, while Flight 257 departs at 1445 and arrives at 1530.

Clean Up
Hi Folks, I've tried to clean this up by moving information to logical sections aiming to keep stuff objective and focused. Since the article has been protected hopefully work can be a bit more constructive. I've tried to base some of the headers/sections on the AF447 and 4U9525 accident articles. Maybe the sections are a little short at the moments but will also probably become longer as more information becomes available. Global aviator (talk) 20:28, 22 August 2015 (UTC)

Why is this article padlocked?
Why? Why not try it with the padlock unlocked? Peas tastes horrible (talk) 23:13, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
 * If you look at the Revision history, you will see that there was a lot of vandalism - that is why. It was only padlocked a few hours ago. YSSYguy (talk) 00:05, 23 August 2015 (UTC)
