Spotchecks

 * TC-JBH was named Antalya, the destination of the flight. Verified.
 * After being told by the pilots that they had the runway in sight, the controller at Antalya notified them that he couldn't see them. First officer Soğangöz responded: "should I believe you, or my eyes?" Captain Topçuoğlu, who was in the passenger cabin, came back to the cockpit after realizing that something was wrong and gave full throttle. Verified, but @Styyx, the source includes considerable content that wasn't added. For example, Captain Topçuoğlu gave the plane full throttle after realizing that something was wrong. "Something was wrong" by itself is very vague. The source (ref 7) mentions that the captain gave full throttle after noticing the mountains. It also includes a lot more detail on the accident. The plane's right wing collapses as it hits the slopes of the nearby mountain, and the plane then bounces towards the other side of the valley, hitting the hill called "Karatepe".
 * In 2009, parts of the plane were still found at the crash site. This may be a slight exaggeration, because the source refers to "signs" of the crash, small bits of metal, clothes, carpet, etc.
 * As of July 2023, the crash is the deadliest aviation accident to occur in Turkey. In ref 2, does "worst accident" mean the "most fatal", because the site lists it as the "23rd fatal accident" but also the "4th worst accident", so "worst accident in Turkey" may not mean the deadliest. This page from the same site lists all the accidents from Turkey, among which this crash has the most fatalities, so I believe it may be more appropriate to cite this one instead.Aintabli (talk) 17:58, 2 August 2023 (UTC)
 * That is for the aircraft type (Boeing 727). It is the 23rd fatal accident of the type, and 4th worst, which is most fatal. The box below that one is for the country. Styyx (talk) 18:20, 2 August 2023 (UTC)


 * This led them to believe that the city lights of Isparta were from Antalya. Verified.
 * While most bodies of Italian victims were sent to Italy, 18 of the Italian passengers were buried at a local cemetery. Verified. Looks good. Aintabli (talk) 21:16, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Copy

 * the system of Antalya Airport informing the pilots of their distance to the airport @Styyx, do you know the term for this, because this is too wordy?
 * You wouldn't believe it... Distance measuring equipment.


 * I have also made some changes in the article. Feel free to reach out if there's a problem you noticed. Aintabli (talk) 08:41, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
 * @Styyx, I have made the final edits. I suggest you go over the article once more, then I will pass this article. Notify me when you're done or there's a problem you noticed. Aintabli (talk) 09:16, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
