Graphic request: Ethiopian Airlines 961 seat map
Anyeverybody,

I found a seat map at http://www.fss.aero/accident-reports/dvdfiles/ET/1996-11-23-ET.pdf Page 53, Appendix D 1 of 8, PDF document Page 59 of 99... that shows the seat map of Ethiopian Airlines Flight 961. Are you interested in making a graphic of this?

 * Been working on it and noticed a problem, around row 14 they have a seat marked with an F but left the seat uncolored. I'm inclined to think it's supposed to be a fatality, but am not sure. Could you go through the numbers of dead/injured and figure out which it's supposed to be? Anynobody(?) 17:52, 22 August 2014 (UTC)


 * Decided to group the conflicts into their own group, here's the rough draft for you to double check

Hi! I didn't realize you were still active. Thank you for making the seat map! Anyway, I took one look at the chart again. That's very observant! I didn't realize they forgot to color the seats as a fatality. Anyway, in the Passenger list (around page 69 of the document) of the report, 14G (Moun Sylia, Malian), 29A (Claude Matarasso, French) and 29B (S Massirou, Nigerian) are all fatalities.

The final report says that 125 died, including 6 crew and 119 passengers (the passenger count includes the three hijackers). The 50 survivors are 44 passengers and 6 crew. The final report states that 4 passengers received no injuries, 2 passengers received minor injuries, and the remaining surviving passengers and all surviving crew received serious injuries. The seating map does not distinguish between minor and serious injuries. I had also checked the passenger list to the seating map: Talk:Ethiopian_Airlines_Flight_961 - The manifest is less up to date than the seating chart because some passengers got last minute upgrades (this is why the manifest-designated seats of Frank Huddle and his wife are empty - they got last minute upgrades to business class) WhisperToMe (talk) 07:05, 26 August 2014 (UTC)

Note that the map shows 7 flight attendant seats, but there were actually a total of nine flight attendants on the aircraft (I don't know where the other two sat) and there was also a flight engineer among the crew. The hijacker seats are 32C (Bekele Alemayehu), 31B (Matias Solomon), and 25B (Nure Sultan). From the accounts there were not in their seats when the plane crashes, but I think their seats should still be marked as fatalities.
