Hello, I saw that you had previously edited the Malaysia airlines fleet, do you know what happened with the 747-400? Thanks kind regards — Preceding unsigned comment added by GogoLive123 (talk • contribs) 19:18, 19 April 2015 (UTC)

AirAsia
Hi, I noticed you undid my edits on the AirAsia page. While I understand that the crash of AirAsia QZ8501 came under the Indonesia AirAsia company, the articles I quoted are about AirAsia handling compensations. Mr Tony Fernandes, CEO of AirAsia and not Indonesia AirAsia, is mentioned in the articles. Jermzc (talk) 01:40, 13 August 2015 (UTC)

Focus city
Hi,

I thought a focus city is defined as: " a location that is not a hub, but from which the airline has non-stop flights to several destinations other than its hubs. "? Got it from this: Focus city. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Eightnine2 (talk • contribs) 23:46, 7 May 2014 (UTC)
 * @Eightnine2, it must match the airline article. None of those carriers have focus cities, only bases! They are not the same thing and you cannot use another Wikipedia article as your source as per WP:CIRCULAR! Rzxz1980 (talk) 18:13, 8 May 2014 (UTC)

your occupation
Hi, I've just noticed you are a first-officer for the a320. May I ask what training and what JPL etc... exams you took? Because I would be interested in a career in aviation, since I actually know quite a bit about flying, and I've flown an approach in a cessna 303. I also hold a few awards on FSX :D

thanks,

Cardiff Airport
If you visit Zoom Airlines's website you can see that they do not have tickets for sale on its service to Vancouver to Cardiff, thus resulting in myself to change the cardiff airport page. If you prove that this service still operates please tell me.

Many Thanks Loughrey13 —Preceding comment was added at 20:07, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

Cardiff International Airport
Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Welshleprechaun (talk) 15:50, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
 * I have added no commentary of my own to the article, merely reverted to a previous version, a change made for good reason. You clearly disagree with the wording of the article and as such you should use the article talk page to put forward your point of view on this matter so that everyone can contribute and come to an agreement on the wording. As the 19th largest airport in terms of passenger numbers in 2006, Cardiff is certainly not a major UK airport and the previous text accurately represented the important part it plays in serving Wales. I have therefore reverted your change again and ask that you use the talk page if you wish to start a discussion on the matter. SempreVolando (talk) 16:06, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

Heathrow expansion
Thanks for your contribution to the 'opposition' section, very helpful. I have come back with some more changes, I have added back some details about the impact on Sipson (which got watered down a week or so ago), and also the section on the climate camp/injunction (but I have added details of BAA and responses to the camp and injunction). The camp was a very significant event gaining worldwide attention, and provides the context for BAA's involvement in Flying Matters. I think there will also be a call for short paragraphs on climate change, local air pollution and noise (with both points of view expressed) but think it is better to let the section 'settle' first. I look forward to your further contributions and hope the 'health warnings' on the section being removed. Do you agree with the heading change, I think it is now at a more logical position in the table of contents. PeterIto (talk) 12:09, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Reversed your reversion to London City Airport
Hi.

I've reversed your reversion to this article. I'm not a participant in WikiProject Airports, and as best I can tell the article isn't a part of that project anyway, although I guess it should be. I came to the article through WikiProject London, which the article is part of.

The guideline you refer to seems bizarre from a general WP POV, and I've already raised an objection to it on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Airports. However that is not why I decided to reverse the reversion. I did that because an undiscussed reversion was IMHO way over the top. Revert suggests reversion in a few cases including vandalism, but explicitly not in good faith cases. As an editor not participating in the project you quote the guideline from, and making clearly non-vandalistic edits, I think I should be accorded good faith. -- Chris j wood (talk) 17:13, 3 January 2008 (UTC)


 * On a more pragmatic note, I feel that linking destinations does resolve some practical difficulties with the unlinked list. For example, without the link, individual readers are going to have to find out for themselves that the destination referred to as Nice is actually Côte d'Azur International Airport. -- Chris j wood (talk) 17:27, 3 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi Chris. I just left a note at the WikiProject Airports Talk Page following your comment which crossed with your message, and have commented there on the policy as it stands for not linking the destination names. I apologise if you considered my reversion to be over the top, I did assume good faith in your edit and perhaps should have discussed it first, but it was on the basis that the edit was not satisfactory (in view of the aforementioned rule). I did not mean to cause offence and did explain my reasoning. In the meantime I have made no further changes as discussed on the project talk page since this article may be a good example to use as the discussion on whether to amend the rule (hopefully) progresses. SempreVolando (talk) 17:28, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi. Thanks for your reply and no harm done. I'm happy to abide by whatever the discussion leads to. I've copied my second comment above to the talk page, as it probably belongs better there. -- Chris j wood (talk) 17:32, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Clickair destinations
An editor has nominated Clickair destinations, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes ( ~ ).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 23:44, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

incidents-manchester airport
hi, why did you remove the incident of dragonair cargo from the page. its an accident and the refernce was given —Preceding unsigned comment added by Danfearn77 (talk • contribs) 12:03, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Hi, the guidelines for including an accident / incident are shown at the WikiProject Airports page and state that "Accidents or incidents should only be included if: This accident is therefore not relevant for inclusion. SempreVolando (talk) 13:02, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
 * The accident was fatal to either the aircraft occupants or persons on the ground.
 * The accident involved hull loss or serious damage to the aircraft or airport.
 * The accident invoked a change in procedures, regulations or process that had a wide effect on other airports or airlines or the aircraft industry."

Hi, i thought it was relevant thats all, due to damage to aircraft etc. is the incident about the excel airways takeoff relevant then? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Danfearn77 (talk • contribs) 15:25, 9 March 2008 (UTC)


 * That's fair enough - the reason for the guidelines is simply to prevent airport and airline articles from becoming filled with minor incidents which happen all the time. In terms of the Excel Airways incident it is a more difficult one. I would be inclined to keep this as it was described by the AAIB as a "serious incident" with several safety recommendations made to both the CAA, NATS and Manchester Airport plc (see here), and therefore may comply with the final category for inclusion in the guidelines (invoking a change in procedures within the industry). Best to start a discussion on the article discussion page so the opinions of other editors can be sought on that one! Thanks. SempreVolando (talk) 15:55, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Hi, yeh thats fair enough i didnt realise it wasnt relevant enough. I was also thinking if you might know where we can get get up to date passenger numbers for manchester from. Either on a rolling 12 month time line or for the first few months in 2008. It would be good to see if there is any change but i have looked briefly and cant find anything? cheers —Preceding unsigned comment added by Danfearn77 (talk • contribs) 16:21, 9 March 2008 (UTC)


 * The CAA statistics are really the only official ones I know of - see the CAA Stats Page. If you click on the provisional airports data you will see some January 2008 Provisional Airort Stats which shows Manchester in Jan 2008 having 1,316,690 passengers (down 0.8% on Jan 2007) and the rolling year to Jan 2008 was 21,880,737 (down 1.1% on the rolling year to Jan 2007). The provisional February 2008 stats are due to be on there on Friday next week (14th March). Hope this helps. SempreVolando (talk) 16:36, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport
I restored the weather link here as it appears in several Canadian airport articles. It serves as an anti-spam link as can be seen here. It links to the official NAV CANADA site rather than advertising some site. At the time (September 2007) there were two different sites that were trying to put links in for weather. I know that there had also been attempts in other airport articles to get various weather sites included. Cheers. CambridgeBayWeather Have a gorilla 08:48, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

You were asking for a source for the London Heathrow Airport mention of the Virgin Nigeria Airways service to Lagos from March 29th, which you reverted. Would this timetable do? David Biddulph (talk) 23:41, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi David. You're right - the flight also appears on the BAA timetable. Sorry about that - checked the VK website but saw nothing so assumed it was confusion over LGW/LHR. Feel free to re-revert. SempreVolando (talk) 23:47, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Oasis to MAN and DUS
Is Oasis beginning HKG-MAN and HKG-DUS flights on July 3? Users keep readding back to the destinations list with a reference that I don't find very useful. Couldn't find the flights on their website. It still has Hong Kong to London-Gatwick and Vancouver flights stilll listed but not Dusseldorf or Manchester flights on their schedules. Did they announce it? Thanks! Audude08 (talk) 15:25, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi Audude, sorry for not getting back to you sooner, as I have now posted on the WP Airports Discussion I don't believe there is yet any reliable source other than speculation for this route commencing. Until the airline starts to sell flights or publishes a timetable or press release, it shouldn't appear on Wikipedia, so I have removed references to it. SempreVolando (talk) 07:40, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Hey SempreVolando, about the Oasis flights to DUS and MAN. It is odd that the HK airport website has the flights listed on their schedules for July 4 but neither Oasis Hong Kong Airlines's website or Manchester Airport's website mentions the said flights.

First of all how seriously do you want to take yourself!?

 * Perhaps you might take a look at Wikipeida's policy on civility? I have been perfectly polite and reasoned in my discussion with you on this topic and would therefore expect the same in return. Judging by your contibution on the discussion at the Manchester Airport page (which I politely invited, so that your views could be debated among other wikipedia editors), the policy is likely to be quite lost on you anyway.

Re: easyJet
No worries, I noted the edit summary you left immediately, and understand the reasoning behind it before you wrote. I'm not a pilot, but it sounds to me like mechanical failure caused a compressor stall, and all the flames were just incompletely consumed fuel igniting after exiting the engine - doesn't strike me as a notable event in itself either.

Hey there, Sempre. When you are using some kind of policy or project guideline as a reason for an edit, could you please link to that project guideline or policy properly in future?

bmi Regional ICAO
Hi,

My friend is a bmi regional pilot (on the E135/45) and he assures me that their ICAO is BMA not BMR, so I feel my source is correct.

If you have anything to say, please email me at: sam.nagy@hotmail.com

Sam

SamNagy (talk) 19:06, 21 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi Sam. Unfortunately Wikipedia requires verifiable sources, I'm not suggesting your source is incorrect however an ICAO code can only be used by one airline at once. In this case BMA is used by bmi. It may be that BMI Regional flights are operated under the BMA code, but this does not necessarily make their own allocated ICAO code BMA. I have started a discussion at the article talk page so this can be cleared up; in the meantime the code has been kept as BMR in the article as the BMA code remains unverifiable. Thanks. SempreVolando (talk) 19:18, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on BMI Regional. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Whilst you may have citations you're still over 3 revisions in under 24 hours. --Blowdart | talk 19:23, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Do you want me to send you some realworld flightplans that feature the callsign?

Sam

SamNagy (talk) 19:27, 21 May 2008 (UTC)


 * I am aware that the 'Midland' callsign and 'BMA' code are used by BMI Regional, however per my reply above this does not make their allocated ICAO code BMA, per ICAO it is BMR. This is verifiable. If you continue the discussion at Talk:BMI Regional other editors can also contribute and hopefully we can come to consensus. Thanks. SempreVolando (talk) 19:31, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

MAN
How is the ground collision between LH and Futura not "notable"? It is a collision and LH have requested even that the German equivalent to the AAIB make a report never mind just the British... so I hear. Where do you compile the rules for what is a "notable" accident? AreaControl (talk) 01:08, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi there. See WP:AIRPORTS article guidelines which include a section on what should / should not be included in Accidents and Incidents sections. This accident only caused minor damage to the aircraft involved and is therefore are not notable. Likewise a (very similar) incident which occured in 2004 was removed as non-notable (see AAIB report here). Therefore just because the AAIB (or national equivalent) investigate an incident and produce a report, this does not necessarily mean it is has encyclopedic notability. These guidelines were introduced to avoid Wikipedia becoming flooded with minor, non-notable aviation incidents which happen regularly all over the world. Hope that helps, and welcome to Wikipedia.

Birmingham International Airport (Retailers)
Hi,

This isn't advertising as its not in line with any particular retailer, therefore please do not remove them. Additional info such as Austin Reed & Julian Graves have been added as they opened recently, I note that the other retailers have been on BHX's wikipedia article for a long time hence no reason to remove them.

Cheers. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.37.220.150 (talk) 13:46, 11 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi, unfortunately this information remains non-notable and non-encyclopedic. Remember that Wikipedia is not a travel guide and as such individual resturants, shops, etc... within an airport are not notable. New shops and restaurants will open very regularly at airports around the world, but this has no encyclopedic notability. The fact retailers have been mentioned in the article for some time also has no bearing on their notability. Thanks. SempreVolando (talk) 14:36, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

Thats subjective and whilst I take on board what you say the article advises of developments at airport, hardly giving directions or travel guides to people, therefore it's notable. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.37.220.150 (talk) 14:43, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

Ryanair - Bournemouth Airport
Hi, just a question regarding the reverted edit about where you attained the information to revert the edit, as the Ryanair website shows that all but Turin operations are seasonal. Yellow routes indicate summer routes, blue routes indicate winter routes and grey routes indicate "year round" services. Currently, the website shows that 17 of 18 destinations appear as year round services, of which were changed within the last 2 days. thanks —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.74.194.179 (talk) 15:28, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Hi. I was using the Bournemouth Airport website (Summer / Winter Destinations Timetables). The Ryanair route map isn't very accurate when it comes to seasonal routes - if you check the timetable on the Ryanair website (Timetables) it confirms that these routes are not bookable until the summer (and Turin ceases for the summer). For example, Palma commences 31st March and ends on 24th October. Ryanair call this "year-round" on their route map! Thanks. SempreVolando (talk) 15:44, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the reply, however - i changed the routes all from seasonal to "year round". This is because the website changed the routes from seasonal to year round on the 2nd february 2009 - this is the first time that ryanair have changed the seasonal routes at Bournemouth, shortly after announcing new routes to Faro, Limoges and Reus. Before the change from seasonal to year round services, the 3 new routes were added as year round routes. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.74.229.153 (talk) 15:30, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I have re-added the seasonal tags as these routes are demonstratably and verifiably seasonal per the WP:AIRPORTS definition. I have stated the points on the Bournemouth Airport talk page if you wish to make further comment there, and so that other users can read the logic and also contribute to the discussion if they wish. Thanks. SempreVolando (talk) 10:50, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

BA CityFlyer Flight 8456
Hi, you removed BA CityFlyer Flight 8456 from BA CityFlyer article. I would like to say maybe the article itself for CJ8456 is not notable but I do believe we should keep the incident on the actual CityFlyer page due to the fact the information may come in helpful, its currently being investigated by AAIB, it did cause damage to aircraft and the airport (closed airport throughout the night) and there was an injury onboard the aircraft. I'd like to add the information and references as validation if you believe it is ok. Thanks. Zaps93 (talk) 22:12, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

London City Airport
You removed two referenced entries involving accidents at the airport. Whilst neither meet WP:AIRCRASH criteria to make them notable enough to justify a separate article, they are each sufficiently notable to have an entry under the aircraft type, airline involved and airport where it happened. I can't see anything in WP:AIRPORTS that says the incidents are not sufficiently notable for a mention. Mjroots (talk) 11:02, 15 February 2009 (UTC)

Emirates Airline
Hi, the incident i had put was anotable incident for Emirates. It was the first incident of Emirates, in which the engine sparked on fire and take off was aborted. Also, broken debris was left on the runway. It is quite notable, since the Australian safety board launched an investigation, and the engine was sent back to the Rolls royce factory. I think it is quite important. So, please bring it back. (MoHasanie (talk) 19:15, 29 April 2009 (UTC))

But the aircraft did get damaged, as the engine was set on fire. The fact that the Australian safety board was involved is quite serious. You said that they're are hundreads of incidents like this, however major investigations haven't been involved. Even the engine was sent back to the rolls royce factory.(MoHasanie (talk) 19:31, 29 April 2009 (UTC))

Really, well i can't argue with that. I just thought it was important, becasue in a recent article by the Times, they mentioned this incident of emirates, and they also mentioned the johannesburgh incident, and the 2009 march melbourne incident.(MoHasanie (talk) 19:37, 29 April 2009 (UTC))

Palmair
Hi SV, Zaps93 has changed the Palmair article to reflect that it is an airline and has reverted my reversions. I have tried to explain on the talk page the difference between an airline and a tour operator (albiet a whole aircraft charter operation). I have given up banging my head against a brick wall, but just as a sanity check with your experience could you have a quick look at it. Thanks. MilborneOne (talk) 18:52, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

Edit of Ryanair's page
Hi SempreVolando, I don't get why you cut my edit? Why leaving other incidents and not adding new ones? The incident has a source, and passengers need to get transparent news. Do you have any interests in protecting Ryanair, as you are a pilot yourself? I'll unedit the page, and will add in a near future more incidents related to Ryanair as I feel like people try to hide these information. Let's talk if you disagree with my edit.

Deletion to Incidents - City of Derry Airport
Greetings SempreVolando

Being a new editor, I now understand your reason for the deletion of the two, what you might call minor, incidents. You are certainly in accordance with wiki policy.

Would you consider allowing them on the basis that they are major in terms of the operation of this particular airport? I make this proposal as a gesture of goodwill on the basis that I believe no-one else would mind.--Cyber Fox 12:13, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

You are too quick to delete

See BA trouble over Concorde tribute
London City Airport and BA made a big fan fare about this inaugural flights. Hence relevant.

http://www.wharf.co.uk/2009/09/ba-trouble-over-concorde-tribu.html

You can add above reference. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.29.37.129 (talk) 20:16, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Hi, thanks for the reference. It is not the inaugural flights which I feel are not relevant, they are mentioned in the article already, it is the opinion of the group Campaigners for the return of Concorde. All Wikipedia articles must be written from a neutral point of view and so if this is deemed relevant the opinion of British Airways must also be included to provide balance to the article. However I still maintain that the issue has little encyclopedic relevance.


 * In the meantime I have started a discussion at the article talk page so that other editors can provide their opinion and we can gain consensus on the issue. Please feel free to add your view there. Thanks. SempreVolando (talk) 20:50, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

Ireland West Airport Knock Editing
I was just giving info about the routes that were available in 2008 and now. Isn't it worth mentioning that a route to Glasgow was available in 2008 with Bmibaby? It is technically info about the airport, not a travel guide. Isn't it worth mentioning the connecting service to Cork via Dublin with Aer Arann? I see information at the beginning of the Recent Years section about MyTravel's service to Birmingham! Isn't that info about a route? It's not a travel guide. I see other people in the past have had bother with editing of pages. I think we should come to a consensus about the Aer Arann connecting route being in the Ireland West Airport article.

Jamesliveproductions —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jamesliveproductions (talk • contribs) 21:19, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Hi. The problem is understanding what Wikipedia is designed to be, and what it isn't. Encyclopedic airport articles are designed to provide things like historic information, location, notable events. etc... They are not designed to list a history of what routes have been operated by airlines at the airport over the years, unless those have some encyclopedic notability (like the first scheduled flights, the first transatlantic flights etc..). You are right to say there is no logic to the MyTravelLite Birmingham service, it has no particular relevance and should be removed.
 * In terms of the Aer Arann route, WikiProject Airports is quite clear that only non-stop and direct flights should be listed in airport article destinations lists. "List non-stop and direct flights only. That means the flight number and the aircraft, starts at this airport and continues to one or more airports." - this means the Aer Arann Cork service should not be included as an aircraft change is required en-route at Dublin. If you disagree with the project guidelines you should take that up at the project talk page. Thanks. SempreVolando (talk) 17:43, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

Hi, can I just say, isn't there significance in the information about the Ryanair route to Alicante, as it is the first scheduled route to a European destination?

Castle Donington
You said: "Revert: Never heard of anyone refer to an airline's HQ location with reference to an administrative district! Can't see the relevance of this."

Is Castle Donington an incorporate municipality? Or is it just a place name? WhisperToMe (talk) 00:26, 14 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Hi, Castle Donington is a place (a town/village), in which BMI's headquarters are located. My edit to the article did not remove reference to Castle Donington, but to North West Leicestershire, which is an administrative district, whose location and in particular boundaries are unlikely to be familiar to most people. It is also of little relevance to the BMI article, as it is not a place. Hope this makes sense? SempreVolando (talk) 17:44, 14 October 2009 (UTC)
 * I am aware that North West Leicestershire was removed. What I was getting at was, Does Castle Donington have a recognized municipal government? If it does, then North West Leicestershire would be not necessary. If it does not, and it is entirely under the jurisdiction of North West Leicestershire, then North West Leicestershire would be necessary as it would be the local government. WhisperToMe (talk) 23:48, 14 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I fail to see why this is necessary. I can't see any reference in WP:AIRLINES or WP:COMPANIES stating that it is necessary or preferable to state the local authority / administrative local government of the town / city in which a company elects to have it's headquarters located. In my view it is irrelevant and not preferable as the names of these local government areas are often misleading and likely to be familiar to very few editors. The important and relevant information is the geographical location only. North West Leicestershire District Council has no juristiction or governance over BMI, and has nothing to do with the operation of the airline, except that BMI will pay corporate taxes (known as 'business rates') to the council for their headquarters building. In return, the council basically provide a regular waste collection to the company at this location. What relevance does this have to an encyclopedic article about a company?

Malaga Airport Expert (And Page Improvements)
Hello SempreVolando

As you have may already noticed, since I've joined Wikipedia, the Malaga Airport page has had a massive expansion. The reason is that I am an expert of Malaga Airport. It is my favourite airport and i have flown the airport 11 times, going for the 12th this Easter. If you're ever lost or need help about the airport, you know who to ask.

Just need to know, is there any Improvements i can do to this page? Keep in mind that there is some things I might not be able to resource as they can be very complicated to resource, like the gate numbers being changed. (The page with the information gets deleted two hours after the flight leaves)

Thank You

Malaga Airport Graph
Hi again

Just like to say thank you very much for adding the graph to the Malaga airport page.

Edinburgh AIrport and Birmingham Airport
Well, according to this article: http://news.scotsman.com/scotland/Edinburgh-airport-overtakes-Birmingham-to.6157492.jp, it states that EDI has overtaken BHX as being the 6th busiest airport in the UK. Snoozlepet (talk) 18:04, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Can we keep an eye on this? The scotsman in the source above got its information directly from EDI which is hardly reliable as any airport is going to "big itself up" to the local media. The official CAA stats show BHX 6th, EDI 7th.
 * The reference from the Scotsman refers to the latest (provisional) data published by the CAA for February 2010 (here), wheras the Wikipedia airport articles (and the busiest airports article) refer to final statistics for the full year 2009 (Jan-Dec). The latest data (though not final yet) shows that Edinburgh moved into 6th place for the 1st March 2009 to 28th February 2010 period with 9,022,434 passengers vs. 9,014,372 for Birmingham. The problem is that airports with passenger totals close to one another will inevitably overtake one another and 'flip-flop' in the rankings from time to time if rolling year to date figures are used. Wikipedia articles on the other hand aren't there to provide a 'running commentary' and so generally only look at whole year statisitics. The statements in both airport articles on their ranking in the UK are clearly correct as they are based on 2009 statistics. When the February 2010 statistics are made final (and published here) it may be worthy of a comment in the statistics section of the Edinburgh airport article, but it should not replace the correct statement in the lead section which refers to 2009. SempreVolando (talk) 11:31, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Agreed. Up until now, the rankings on here have been based on Annual reports rather than the monthly ones. Even if the monthly report says that EDI is 6th, the official monthly report isn't released until 22 March, so changing the stats now is speculative. It's worth a mention, but not changing lead paragraphs over, because as you say, there may be leap frogging every month (could you imagine all the tables in the busiest airports article if all the monthly numbers were continuously published there?!)

Images & B757-200
Hi again

Just asking, how do you add images from websites from wikipedia?

Also, when you deleted the possible orders of a B757 for Monarch, the reason i did not reference it is because one of the cabin crew told me that Monarch are looking for some more 757's.

thanks --MKY661 (talk) 19:47, 11 May 2010 (UTC)

Largest Operators
Hi. you know when you deleted the monarch largest operator thing? well i read the message on the history page, so do you want me to add the information you said to all of the UK airlines.

Eg Thomas Cook is the largest A330 operator in the UK, BA is the largest B747 operator in the UK etc.

thanks

--MKY661 (talk) 15:41, 27 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Hi, no what I was saying was that almost every airline is the largest (or sole) operator of a certain type in their country - so the fleet tables would be full of these notes if we did it by country. Being the largest operator in the world of a particular aircraft type is notable and is usually included (e.g. Delta is the largest B757 operator in the world), but including it by country is too much. Thomas Cook, for example, is the largest (and only) UK operator of the B757-300, but with only 2 in the fleet it's hardly noteworthy. Hope this makes sense? Thanks. SempreVolando (talk) 16:15, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

Thanks!
That's been driving me batty ;-)

I live 20 minutes from the airport, so I don't get too concerned about the current services (as I see them whenever I pass the airport...) but the uncited future schedules annoy me, particularly as it seems to be just one or two uncommunicative users doing it.

Ryanair
Why have you removed Ryanair as a hub at Standsted. It is the airlines largest hub with over 40 ac based and over 100 routes served from the airprot. Jamie2k9 (talk) 20:39, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Ryanair have a large base at Stansted, but it is not a hub per the airline definition. You cannot book a ticket from Glasgow Prestwick to Agadir via London Stansted on Ryanair for example, you must purchase two separate tickets. It is not the same as British Airways at Heathrow or Lufthansa at Frankfurt, where this is possible and quite common. These are examples of a hub operation. Low-cost airlines like Ryanair and easyJet don't have hubs, just bases. Hope that makes sense. SempreVolando (talk) 20:46, 4 June 2010 (UTC)

That report, on it's own, does not meet criteria I agree.

Making deletions at Dublin Airport
First of all congratulations on your excellent user page and I am jealous that I never achieved my boyhood dream of becoming a pilot and ended up an accountant! Turning to less important matters, I noticed that you deleted a piece on the contract awarded to run bookshops at the new terminla 2 at Dublin airport. This featured on a number of media outlets including Ireland's largest selling newspaper and it shows either stupidity on the part of the management or sharp practise on the part of WH Smith (the truth being somewhere between the two) and is worthy of inclusion. Nonetheless I would welcome your thoughts before engaging in an edit war. Skreen (talk) 12:07, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

How do you make graphs because i need to add the 2010 statistics to the graph at malaga. (Yes AENA have revealed the 2010 statistics)

--MKY661 (talk) 23:53, 14 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi, I create the graphs myself and upload them. Normally I wait until final full year statistics are published for most airports (in the UK this happens around mid-March). Since AENA are far quicker than other countries at publishing final stats I will try to update the Malaga and Palma graphs this evening. SempreVolando (talk) 00:04, 15 January 2011 (UTC)

OK thanks. I will also consider making a statistics table for Alicante As well.

I have also noticed that a citation needed for the average age of the Jet2 737-800 fleet. What i did to find it (Its on the same page on the website) and it tells you the age of the aircraft (There is only one 737-800 in the fleet at the moment).

Etihad incident
Re your removal, why is the incident not notable enough to mention? I agree that it is not notable enough for a stand-alone article, but the escorting of the aircraft to Stansted by the RAF should give enough notability for a mention. According to Pprune, the unruly passenger made a bomb threat. Either this has not been picked up by RSs yet, or it is a rumour. Which is why I didn't add the info. Mjroots (talk) 16:26, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Hi, WP:AIRPORTS and WP:AIRLINES has guidelines for the notability of aircraft accidents / incidents and their inclusion on these pages. Largely, non-notable or minor incidents are excluded so that these articles do not become cluttered with minor, non-notable events such as this one, which while relatively rare do happen from time to time. See the criteria here. Basically, incidents / accidents should be fatal or result in a hull loss to qualify. Thanks SempreVolando (talk) 16:32, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm well versed in the various notability debates. An accident does not have to result in a hull loss or even substantial damage to qualify for an article. I believe the rarity of the event gives sufficient notability for a mention, but not an article. Will raise the issue at WT:AV where you are welcome to comment. Mjroots (talk) 16:35, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Ok that's fine. It would go against the project guide to include it though, which was introduced some years ago (after much debate and discussion). Will happily comment on any new proposal however. Airborne intercepts of civil jets by military aircraft are much less common than you think by the way, the airline I work for had 2 last year alone over Europe. In some countries during the busy summer months, there is more than one per day. They usually come about because of loss of communications issues but disruptive passenger incidents are even more common than intercepts sadly! Thanks.

EasyJet fleet
There's already 2 references: CAA, and Airbus O&D. The last one gives the figures I updated (or tried to update...), as well as do Airfleets and CH-Aviation (that I'm adding right now). Note also that when reverting the fleet total, you're also reverting the number of orders that the CAA reference doesn't reference at all (figures from Airbus O&D, obviously up-to-date). Slasher-fun (talk) 16:03, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

Airbus A330/A340 photos
Hello SempreVolando, thanks for your time in advance :) Since you're also a pilot on the A330, do you mind taking a photo of the cockpit, similar to File:Airbus A380 Qantas Cockpit.JPG. Regarding the wing, I'd like two photos of the both aeroplane models (A330 and A340) from a front-on angle, encompassing the whole wing from tip to tip, like this page this page. Please make them as similar as possible, because I'm thinking of placing both of them next to each other so the reader could compare them. If I need a picture of aeroplane parts in the future, do you mind lending me a hand? I won't be needing a lot, just now and then.

Why remove IATA codes?
I added the IATA codes to the list of busiest airports because they were very useful to me. I was searching for flights using the "Matrix Airfare Search" in ITA software. I wanted to make a list of large airports to find good flights, and I realized that one good approach would be to work from this Wikipedia page. So I added the IATA codes to help other people --- besides, the US version of the same page has the same codes. I don't think that it's helpful to remove it just because the information exists elsewhere; it's a very small amount of extra space on the page and it truly does serve a purpose for some people.

Sorry to bother you again, since I didn't received any reply or comment for last message.

The indicent, which Juneyao Airlines refuse to give way to a Qatar Airways "Mayday" aircraft and risked deadly air crash in Shanghai Hongqiao Airport, recently reviewed by several users in English wikipedia and other language projects, are considered as "extremely noteworthly", etc. Also with the reasons of the impact in public and social climate, I think this content should be kept although it may not formed an "accident"(Of course, may be not wrote in "accident" section).

 * Hi. Ok no harm done, it's just my opinion! I think it looks messy that's all. I note the examples you use are all financial institutions, where trading / brand names may differ from ownership due to takeovers. Just because there are other wikipedia articles which use a different format, doesn't make it the right one! Following the same logic wouldn't we have to change the airline name above the infobox to things like Flybe Group PLC t/a Flybe or Jet2.com Limited t/a Jet2? I just don't think that's in the sprit of the concise summary the infobox is designed to provide, particularly when trading names and ownership details can be done to death elsewhere in the article. In any event, the issue should be raised on the article discussion page to gain consensus from a few other editors. Thanks. SempreVolando (talk) 10:59, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

New Airline Format
I don't appreciate you undoing edits on many of the airline pages. I have no problem discussing this with you but you don't undo an edit and just give 2 words if its a change in format. I am 100% willing to listening to your excuses and reasonings but there needs to be discussion before changing it. I changed it to the new format after the new format actually came out so there was no need for a long discussion as it was the actual new format. Cali4529 (talk) 04:32, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
 * The format does not comply with WP:AIRLINES infobox format criteria. You are welcome to start a discussion there is you think it should be changed. We don't need a collapsable 3-line space in the infobox for a field which is only supposed to contain one number. Thanks. SempreVolando (talk) 04:35, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
 * You can see this being snotty but it is not meant to be so, can you show me where it says it in you WP:Airlines link because I can't find it. Cali4529 (talk) 04:37, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
 * See Template:Infobox airline, it lists the infobox categories and states what each should contain. In this case fleet_size: The number of aircraft currently in service (delivered, in service aircraft only - no orders, purchase options or aircraft in desert storage). In the meantime I've started a discussion at WP:AIRLINES inviting comment in case other editors agree with your format, as the template would have to be changed if so. Thanks SempreVolando (talk) 04:44, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

Graphs
Hello SempreVolando. Just asking will you be making your Graps again this year for the total passenger numbers? Reason I asked was because Aena now have their statistics for 2011 and i have added some to Wiki (AGP, ALC, PMI, LPA, TFS & TFN). I will also get some more done tomorrow. Thanks --MKY661 (talk) 19:27, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Hi MKY661. Actually the statistics published by Aena are provisional 2011 totals, not final figures which aren't released until around May each year. While it's useful to include them in articles, they must be noted as 2011 (provisional). In the same sense it isn't really worth doing the graphs until final figures are released as they do sometimes change quite a bit. The UK provisional 2011 stats will also be released next week but the same applies. Thanks. SempreVolando (talk) 20:54, 11 January 2012 (UTC)


 * Ok no problem. Just done a few more (ACE, IBZ, FUE & BIO) and I have said that they are provisional. Thanks MKY661 (talk) 18:04, 12 January 2012 (UTC)

IAA
hi, Should the number of aircraft movements be based on commercial terminal flights or all flights, the figures on DUB page for 2010 are all but I have added 2011 commercial terminal flights only as don't have data for all flights. Which should it be? Jamie2k9 (talk) 23:28, 26 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Hi, Aircraft Movements should include all take-offs and landings at an airport (regardless of type). The term for commercial flights only is Air Transport Movements. What is your source for the movements data? If it's IAA, it seems they have stopped reporting total movements and now only report on commercial movements, so we might have to annotate the data differently. Thanks.

Manx 2 Jetstream accident
The last sentence of the source's blurb states "The aircraft sustained substantial damage." Please revert your removal of the accident from the articles. Mjroots (talk) 13:36, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
 * You're quite right sorry I missed that entirely! It may still be an issue with Aviation Herald's "sensationalist" language (it's not the most reliable of sources at the best of times particularly on new incidents). In the picture it doesn't look too bad, but with older types like this, it could also easily be a write-off. I've restored the incident let's keep an eye on subsequent reports, especially AAIB in time. Thanks. SempreVolando (talk) 13:47, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the revert. Of course, other websites are available, such as Aviation Safety Network, and the BBC. Apparently the incident made The Sun today, or so I was told. I doubt that the incident is notable enough for a stand alone article, but it is worth mentioning. Mjroots (talk) 16:39, 9 March 2012 (UTC)

World's busiest airports
Hello. Could you express your opinion here about the Guangzhou airport.--178.162.75.63 (talk) 21:59, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

Flybe
Hi! I noticed this edit - You said "Removed previously, abnormal convention to state Local Authority Area"

I don't understand what is going on. Exeter municipality and East Devon municipality are two separate places. The airport is within East Devon, not Exeter. The company head office is on the airport property. WhisperToMe (talk) 16:08, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Hi, the issue is that East Devon is not a place, it is a local government / local authority area. The article already states that the airline is based in Devon (the accepted geographical county with which most are likely to be familiar). It is not normal on Wikipedia to state the local authority area a company is based in. Thanks. SempreVolando (talk) 11:21, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

Humberside Airport
Good afternoon

I am afraid that I dont agree with your removal of the KLM detail. This is a FACT, not promotional and not incorrect. If the page is allowed to show a reduction in overall pax numbers, then why, with respect, is it not allowed to expand on the numbers and provide detail that gives greater depth of information? The H4U collapse is also relevant.

You state that its not neutral. I would argue that the removal of the detail provides an unbalanced view.

The 10k plus increase for KLM during the last 12 months is, I believe, an important piece of information which is neither promotional nor inflammatory.

Why also delete the point about the airport having its own fuel farm?

Clearly you are a highly experienced contributor; non the less, as you neither fly, operate or work from HUY I would like you to explain why you felt this huge edit was required?

Kind regards Latituded610 Latituded610 (talk) 16:19, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

N.B Happier with the changes now. Perhaps you can suggest how we provide the validation for the helicopter movements other than from my own chroma report? The CAA dont show this as separate information on their statistics. I would have to get a report produced. However, this is a fact,again, and is useful to have it shown.

I would also like to point to the government discussion paper that shows a potential for HUY to have some 10 million pax in another 25 years. This may be somewhat optimistic (clearly the airport wont look anything like it does today)

A brand new ILS has just been installed at a cost of 1.2 million, finished and approved for use in late March 2012. Is this allowed to be mentioned or would this be a NPOV?

regards — Preceding unsigned comment added by Latituded610 (talk • contribs) 17:14, 10 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Hi, firstly I would suggest raising all these issues on the article discussion page so that other editors can also add their comments and opinion. The CAA do produce an annual report of passengers and air transport movements by fixed and rotary wing for each airport and the 2011 report is here. It shows Humberside had the 4th highest number of helicopter movements in the UK in 2011 (after Aberdeen, Norwich and Scatsta), and 4th also by total passengers by helicopter. This might be worth mentioning somewhere. Any report you would be able to produce would likely fall foul of WP:NOR, unless it was independently published. There is no harm in having details of future developments, as the article is missing lots of detail on that front, for example the Airport Masterplan and government discussion paper are not even mentioned, and a new ILS system is probably worthy of comment provided an independent source is quoted. SempreVolando (talk) 17:37, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

Humberside Aiport and Antonov 12 DG flight
Morning

I have several images of the Antonov 12 that arrived at HUY last week; our first one of its kind for both the plane and cargo type. Is this an acceptable image to show? ALso, how do you embed the picture?

regards

Latituded610 (talk) 07:21, 11 April 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't think an An-12 would be all that notable but if the image quality is good enough, particularly if it shows a good amount of the airport as well, then it might add to the article. You would have to upload it to Wikimedia Commons first by creating an account and following the instructions there before you could add it into the article here. Thanks. SempreVolando (talk) 12:56, 11 April 2012 (UTC)

Ten is more than enough for an airport of this size ?

Scoot Airlines
Hi,

I notice that you have omitted the news regarding the "World's Longest Virtual Flight" contest and the fiasco that follows. This World Longest Virtual Flight contest is part of the Scoot Air 1st Anniversary celebrations and should be newsworthy to the history of Scoot Air. The contest has attracted thousands of contestants and whatever happens to the contest involves some elements of public interests. The aftermaths of this contest are well reported in mainstream local media in Singapore.

You have cited "No encyclopaedic notability" for this omission. Independent media sources/references from the media have been previously cited articles.

Care to enlighten me the reason for your omission? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 103.11.49.66 (talk) 04:28, 7 June 2013 (UTC)


 * Hi there. This is an encyclopedia, so only information of lasting significance would qualify as notable (see WP:NOTABLE), this is more of a temporary news item. Some controversy over a competition run by the airline would hardly be of any encyclopaedic relevance 5 or 10 years from now (notability is not temporary). Also, Wikipedia is not a news service. While news coverage can be useful source material for encyclopedic topics, most newsworthy events do not qualify for inclusion. For example, routine news reporting on things like announcements, sports, or celebrities is not a sufficient basis for inclusion in the encyclopedia. Hope that helps, thanks. SempreVolando (talk) 05:23, 7 June 2013 (UTC)

Air Mauritius
Hi there, Sempre Volando. I noticed that you the ″Incidents and accidents″ section from the article. Don't you think that, for the sake of completeness, it is approrpiate to include a section pointing out that the airline had not experienced a deadly accident in its history? Cheers.--Jetstreamer $Talk$ 19:47, 16 October 2013 (UTC)


 * (TPS) excuse me - just to comment that we dont normally have an accident and incidents section if they have not been any, fwiw. If it is notable that it has had no accidents and that is backed up by commentary from reliable sources (rather than a nil count from ASN) then that could just be mentioned in the main body of the article. MilborneOne (talk) 11:33, 17 October 2013 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for your message. I don't think there's a particular need for completeness in featuring a section in the article to simply state... well nothing really. It should go without saying that the lack of an 'Incidents and accidents' section implies that there have been no notable ones in the airline's history. The WP:AIRLINES page content template also suggests sections such as 'Codeshare agreements' and 'Airline Affinity Programs', so it's a bit like saying if an airline doesn't have any of these we should insert the section(s) anyway then state they don't have one, which seems a bit illogical to me. SempreVolando (talk) 14:32, 17 October 2013 (UTC)

IndiGo fleet
Hi, Thanks for your recent edit on IndiGo airlines fleet. In your edit you updated their fleet strength from 97 to 96 providing an official reference. But the reference you provided clearly says that the fleet strength is 96 as of 30 April 2015 so how come it is updated? Unfortunately IndiGo recently made their fleet reference page accessible. Since I have personally contacted their team on Twitter to know the current fleet size where they confirmed me that the fleet size currently stands at 97 as of July 2015. Now I need your opinion about updating the correct information with proper reference. Thanks, M.soumen (talk) 09:49, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your message, when I referred to the reference as 'updated' what I meant was the previous reference was no longer accessible (as you noted) so I found an alternative statement on the Indigo site which quoted their fleet total, I didn't mean that it was 'newer' as such. Since the DGCA in India does not publish an online aircraft register to my knowledge it's hard to know where to turn for a regularly-updated reliable source for this information other than relying on IndiGo to update the newly-referenced page with the latest totals on a regular basis. Unfortunately Twitter is not a reliable source I don't think. SempreVolando (talk) 10:59, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Actually it turns out there is an online DGCA aircraft register - . Using 'Interglobe' (the parent company) as the search criteria, it does generate a fleet list for IndiGo. This would be classified as a reliable source. Only two things - firstly it still states a fleet of 96 A320s, and secondly (perhaps related) it does not seem to feature an 'updated date', so we can't be sure what period the fleet listing relates to. It could also be a snapshot from 30 April? SempreVolando (talk) 11:06, 31 July 2015 (UTC)

 * There have been previous discussions regarding the inclusion of former destinations at WP:AIRPORTS and from recollection the consensus reached each time was not to include former destinations. It was never added to the actual guidelines though, and I will have to take a look through the discussion archives tomorrow to point you towards them. The fact that some people find such a list useful doesn't really change the issue that wikipedia is not supposed to be an enthusiasts guide. While some route terminations are notable, the majority will not have much notability. There then comes the issue that they would all have to be sourced, and those which ended in 1963, for example, would then be no less notable than those ending in 2015 (notability is not temporary). This is an almost impossible task IMO. Just my $0.02! SempreVolando (talk) 18:20, 13 August 2015 (UTC)

Yep, I see your point. At the time I thought that it was not that big of an airport so I thought it would be 'OK', I guess not. RMS52 (talk) 18:47, 13 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Hello - thanks for the response. I was blissfully unaware of WP:Aircrash, so happy to defer to your experience.

Error by you?
For the Brussels Airport article, you recently wrote as a comment " (Undid revision 713129572 by Whiskeymouth (talk) Not an error - did not occur at or near the airport as required for inclusion per WP:AIRCRASH / WP:AIRPORTS) (undo | thank)"

I randomly picked 3 airports and find that your rule is not a Wikipedia practice. For Stapleton International Airport, there is mention of United Airlines flight 173 crashing in Portland and United Airlines flight 585 crashing in Colorado Springs. For Toronto Pearson International Airport, there is mention in the accidents/incidents section of Air India flight 181 which crashed after a bomb blast near Ireland. For Boston Logan International Airport, there is mention of flights which crashed in New York on 11 September 2001.

Therefore, I believe your rules are not to be followed. Would you comply and not remove if my edit is reinstated? Whiskeymouth (talk) 18:00, 3 April 2016 (UTC)

There are two ways that people generally edit articles. One is to just change it, with or without discussion. You did make a talk page comment, which is good.

Tigerair Australia
i noticed that you have changed the table on the Tigerair page and you removed the Boeing 737's from the table. Those aircraft are a part of the Tigerair fleet just like the Qantaslink fleet and some of the Virgin Australia Regional fleet which have other airlines operate aircraft for their own fleet in their own livery. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dunno2014 (talk • contribs) 08:44, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Hi Dunno 2014. Firstly thanks for discussing! For the case of the Tigerair Australia B737s, these are wet-leased from Virgin Australia and operated by that airline, their AOC and by their pilots. Obviously they are painted in the Tigerair livery for the purpose of the lease, but the policy at WP:AIRLINES clearly states Please do not include wet-leased aircraft. For the Qantaslink and VA Regional articles that is something I will take a look at as the same policy should certainly apply, though we do make exceptions in listing fleets operated for brands rather than airlines (for example, Citywing). Those are not wet-leases as such, as the company is a brand not an airline, and I suspect the same would apply to Qantaslink at least (which I understand does not hold an AOC). But I will take a look! Thanks. SempreVolando (talk) 08:51, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
 * I am not aware of any aircraft operated under the Virgin Australia Regional brand that are not VARA aircraft, nor AFAIK are there VARA aircraft that operate for other airlines in the colours of those airlines. Some evidence for the claim would be nice. YSSYguy (talk) 09:19, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Some of the VARA aircraft such as the A320's and the Fokker 50's are operated by Skywest on behalf of VARA. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dunno2014 (talk • contribs) 00:33, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Dunno, SkyWest no longer exists, it was renamed Virgin Australia Regional, if you don't know that, well... Moving on, let me explain a few things about airlines; an airline is a company that has an Air Operator Certificate (AOC) issued (in the case of Australian airlines) by CASA for Regular Public Transport (RPT), meaning it is allowed to operate scheduled flights. No RPT AOC=not an airline. Each aircraft operated by an airline is listed on its AOC by serial number and registration; if an aircraft is not listed on the AOC then the airline cannot operate it. Eastern Australia's aircraft are on its AOC, Sunstate's are on its AOC, Network's are on its AOC. QantasLink does not have an AOC, it is not an airline. There are no Dash 8 aircraft on Jetstar's AOC; there are no Boeing 737s on Tigerair's AOC. Jetstar is not allowed to operate Dash 8s and Tigerair is not allowed to operate 737s. The two articles show that there are some aircraft of a different airline operating with the Jetstar or Tigerair brand, there is no more to be said. YSSYguy (talk) 04:09, 11 April 2016 (UTC)

April 2016
Hi there, further to your edits to Tigerair Australia, please read the hidden note regarding the 737 aircraft before changing it and removing the details. The 737 aircraft are part of the Tigerair Australia fleet but they are operated by Virgin Australia on Tigerair's behalf. If you have any queries, please raise them at the article talk page prior to editing. It is really not constructive to get into an edit war over this, two experienced editors have calmly explained the reasoning and policy behind the article content, and though you clearly still don't agree - the solution is not to edit war, it's to discuss.Thanks.

British Airways six Boeing 737 Stored
About the conflict in British Airways Article. I checked out the six 737 registered in "United Kingdom Civil Aircraft Register" at the fleet of British Airways and all are Stored.

G-DOCV is Stored in 10/2013 G-DOCU is Stored in 08/2013

G-DOCH is Stored in 11/2013 actually Scrapped

G-DOCS is Stored in 06/2014

G-DOCE is Stored in 02/2014

G-DOCG is Stored in 12/2013

Your message: ''Please see the discussion at Talk:British Airways.

Thanks. SempreVolando (talk) 12:41, 23 April 2016 (UTC)''

Sorry but there is clear evidence, you can not be included aircrafts in the fleet that are stored or scrapped.

You can not justify these aircraft are included in the fleet because they are in the register of civil aviation. 747's are stored for a year in lower case and up to 3 in the case of the 737's.

The other articles of airlines have a reliable source and UPDATED, airfleets.net is a page dedicated solely to tracking aircraft and have an a updated register of the airlines fleets, is an a exceptional source, reliable and updated.

You can not include planes that are stored since 3 years in the fleet, this things destroyed the credibility of the article.

Singapore Airlines Order
Hello,

I have reverted your edit to Singapore Airlines Fleet. The airline has confirmed it is a firm order via a press release you can find here. - http://infopub.sgx.com/FileOpen/NE-0117.ashx?App=Announcement&FileID=438444

"Singapore Airlines (SIA) has agreed to place firm orders with Boeing for 20 777-9s and 19 787-10s, for additional growth and fleet modernisation through the next decade. SIA has today signed a letter of intent with the US airframe manufacturer comprising the 39 firm orders plus six options for each aircraft type, which if exercised will enlarge the deal to as many as 51 aircraft."

Many Thanks

--JetBlast (talk) 07:10, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
 * I think that's the point, it states has agreed to place firm orders. They haven't actually placed them yet. So it is a letter of intent (LoI or purchase commitment as it is also known in the industry) to place a firm order at a later date. A Letter of intent cannot be a firm order yet by definition. This Boeing press release also confirms - has announced its commitment to purchase, and When finalised, the order will be posted on the Boeing Orders and Deliveries website. So both these references confirm the same thing, despite the unusual wording chosen in the Singapore Airlines press release. Thanks. SempreVolando (talk) 13:44, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

Domestic Passenger Top Destinations
Why are you removing carriers from US domestic passenger top destination lists under the guise that the source does not have that information? It does have carrier information as the RITA stats are summaries of T100 data which associate carriers with every single passenger listed. These tables correspond with primary carriers in these routes. OslPhlWasChi (talk) 12:29, 3 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Hi, the RITA summary stats do not mention the operating carrier. It is the summary which is currently used as the reference. To include the information the reference would need to refer directly to the source data itself showing the information. The information must match the quoted source. Thanks SempreVolando (talk) 12:32, 3 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Fair statement - the information does not match the reference. Then instead of removing the information, we should change the reference to match the true source - https://www.transtats.bts.gov/Fields.asp?Table_ID=293 with the appropriate access date, similar to the presentation of international top destinations. That is an easy change and still maximizes the presentation of true, valid information on the page. Removing the information to match the limitations of RITA summary stats (without the appropriate reference to T100 data) is a far less preferable final condition that removes otherwise good information. OslPhlWasChi (talk) 15:00, 3 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your response. Can you give me an example of how the reference you mentioned (which also is used for the international stats) can provide the desired breakdown? It's obviously a very powerful database and I'm sure it can, but I can't get it to having played around with it for a few minutes (probably showing my age now!). While reliable sources should not be rejected just because they are difficult to access, it is also preferable for users to be able to easily verify the content in the source provided where possible (e.g. this is currently easy using the RITA summary stats). As a secondary point, even if the reference can show the operating carrier list by route (I'm sure it can), do we actually want to include this information? Surely the purpose of these statistical tables is to show the busiest routes at an airport, and including the operating carrier is simply duplicating the information already provided in the Airlines and destinations table for each airport. Possibly a discussion for project-level, but would be interested in your opinion on that. Thanks! SempreVolando (talk) 16:48, 3 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Equally appreciative of this dialogue. On the website I provided above, you can download all that data that ultimately is used by the RITA summary stats, including specific passenger counts by specific route, carrier, and month. These are then aggregated over a 12 month period to come up with the annual counts. Admittedly, in addition to the primary carriers listed, numbers can also include a few unscheduled passengers or small/minor impacts of general aviation. But the carriers listed normally correspond with those who have scheduled service over that period. So you are correct, this is not as easily accessible. But some of us - myself included - who are nerds and play with this data in our spare time, can verify the carriers and do so via T100 data that correspond with the listed routes. Its the same thing for what you see for top international routes on US airport pages. The only difference is the RITA summary stats page creates a shortcut for partial information on domestic routes. For me, I have endless excel files of the T100 data and can isolate exactly which carriers have been on which routes over whatever 12 month period you want. So if the carrier information is correct albeit with a different and less legible reference, my though is it is better to include it than take it out. And yes, I would say we want to include it. A route with 1 million annual passengers served by one carrier is very different than a route with 1 million annual passengers served by five carriers. And since the data covers a 12 month period, that normally is several months in the past, looking at the current passenger route tables does not provide an accurate depiction of what carriers served the route over the period of the data.

BHX
Please stop war editing with me on the BHX page. These flights in question have a gap of slightly over 5 weeks. This is over a month in length of time. Therefore these routes are seasonal. Year round is 52 weeks out of 52 - or close by that figure. 47 out of 52 is no where close to this figure. These flights only have 1 flight in Jan so it's pushing the boat out slightly to say this is year round. I aim to edit Wikipedia to make articles more accurate and your disruptive edits are making these pages - like BHX - less accurate. Please stop this or you may become blocked from editing.

I'm guessing form his name that he was born in 1999 and is currently about 18 years old. I know that with youth comes a tendency to be a bit impetuous or hot-headed but people mature as time passes. Is there anything you could do to maybe encourage him / her and nurture in one way or another ? He/she seems to mean well but I just think that this is someone who could perhaps just do with a bit of nudging and/or encouragement in the right direction from someone who he/she would respect.

Aer Lingus Fleet Table
Hey,

I have tried to update the A330-300 seating config on the table but cannot get the format correct. The latest A333 followed by any outstanding orders have a config of 313 (30J, 283Y) to allow crew rest access for West Cost ops. Any idea's as I think you did the A330-200 format before.

Singapore Airlines fleet
Hi, I noticed your slight revision to my edit regarding the A380 fleet regarding stored aircraft, yet I noticed you didn't make the same revision to the Emirates fleet article where a similar edit has not been corrected. Is there any Wikipedia guidance regarding this for the sake of consistency and avoiding edit warring on articles.

Cheers — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.32.116.24 (talk) 18:00, 27 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Information on Wikipedia articles must be reliably sourced. In this case the source is the national aircraft registry of Singapore, updated monthly. Hence the fleet is shown correct at 31 July 2017, until the next update is published. Altering the totals without a reliable source isn't going to be acceptable in line with the WP:RS policy if a reliable source is already stated. I have no idea about the Emirates fleet page but I'll take a look when I get time. Thanks. SempreVolando (talk) 16:21, 31 August 2017 (UTC)

Singapore Airlines A350
9V-SMQ was delivered on 12 September 2017, there are 17 A350s in Singapore Airlines fleet — Preceding unsigned comment added by 219.70.211.47 (talk) 15:03, 12 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your message. As explained before in the edit summaries, the reliable source for the Singapore Airlines fleet data is the monthly updated civil aircraft register published by CAAS. The fleet list is therefore correct at 31 August 2017 and the referenced total of A350s operated by the airline at that date was 16. Wait for the next update at 30 September 2017 when the total will no doubt be revised (and similarly for all the other types the airline operates at that date). Hope this makes sense. Thanks.

 * Anyway, "delivered" does not necessarily mean "operated by". YSSYguy (talk) 07:54, 13 September 2017 (UTC)

Emirates 777-300ER citation requirement
There was a citation added to it previously, however after the 787 orders at the DAS, some genius decided to remove the citation when trying to 'clean up' the table. Anyway, I've added it again, and if you click the link and refine your search on Boeing's website to show orders for EK only, you'll see that there are 120 orders, with 105 delivered, which means 15 remaining. However, the list hasn't been updated since October 2017, but one aircraft was delivered between that time and now, which is A6-EQH, the newest 777-300ER delivered on 3rd Nov that showed the new First Class Cabin at the Dubai Airshow. So that would mean there are 14 unfilled orders, with 106 aircraft delivered. This information can be confirmed on the link here and here. I've updated the EK fleet page with removing the 787 orders again as well.
