Virgin Blue A330
Hi,

You put 1 A330 as being in the Virgin Blue fleet. The Aircraft is not in service as yet. It is sitting in Melborne airport waiting for work to be done on it. It will be in service June / July

Thanks

Virgin Blue A330 again
Hi,

I have reverted your edit about the Virgin Blue A330. The aircraft is not in service so does not go into the "in service" column.

Speedy deletion contested: Regourd Aviation
Hello YSSYguy, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I contested the speedy deletion of Regourd Aviation, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Not unambiguously promotional.

Ryan kirkpatrick redux
(Cross-posting from O Fenian's talkpage, which I have on watchlist in case this guy pops up again.)

Sticking in my oar - it looks like his MO (a few edits a day, spread out over a number of days, like he's trying to stay under the radar). And I found more typos, such as this: (which he created). Smells like he's back - he's behaving better, but he's still back. -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 14:37, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

Kadena crash
At that time, Okinawa was not part of Japan. It was considered a US occupied territory. Okinawa didn't revert back to Japanese government control until 1972. I don't know if this means the crash should be considered as having occurred in the United States or not, however. Cla68 (talk) 07:52, 18 April 2011 (UTC)

Questioning your reversion of a recent DC-3 edit about one flying with Chathams Pacific.
Noticed you recently reverted some IP's contribution claiming that the only DC-3 in scheduled commercial service was being operated by Chathams Pacific. However, the airline's own website says that they do indeed have a restored DC-3 in current scheduled service. Is that what you were doubting, or were you doubting whether it was the only such DC-3 still in airline service? --Colin Douglas Howell (talk) 06:49, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

Avianca
Hi,

I need you help please. I can come across the Avianca page. Its in a real mess. The page has some layout issues, information seems to be in the wrong place. For example there is a fleet table is under Shareholding.

I have changed the code share area to take less space and get rid of the flags. Tomorrow i will sort the fleet table issue.

I was wondering where i could flag this up for the work needing doing to it for other members to help please?

If you can reply on my talk page.

Thanks

Partnair
Hi! Regarding http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Partnair_Flight_394&diff=365411967&oldid=364348261

The program had literally stated this. Did it mean that there had been no accidents of major commercial airliners due to fake parts? (I would imagine things like that would be more common with GA) - If there were commercial airliner accidents due to fake parts, which ones are in mind? WhisperToMe (talk) 05:59, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I'll take a look at Google News and see if there are other airliner accidents with fake parts involved.
 * When the program said that there had been no other fake part accidents, it was probably only considering commercial airliners, and not GA
 * Watching the segment about Partnair, I noticed that neither Schiavo nor Friedman (the people interviewed) discussed GA. Schiavo talked about smaller airlines first, before Air Force One.
 * The program's literal line is: "In the two decades following the crash of Partnair 394, there wasn't a single fatal accident attributed to bogus parts"
 * WhisperToMe (talk) 13:59, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the tip! I'm finding some interesting stuff!
 * If I do find any other fatal accident cases attributed to fake parts, I'll let you know
 * WhisperToMe (talk) 14:24, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
 * BTW, thanks to the inspiration from the Google searches, I started Unapproved aircraft part - There's a thread on the Aviation WikiProject talk page about it... WhisperToMe (talk) 18:12, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

I found some answers related to the fatal accident stuff. From the "BLACK MARKET OF THE SKIES SUBSTANDARD AIRPLANE PARTS POSE RISK" article by Frank Bajak of the Associated Press... "An FAA study of its accident-incident database done at the request of the Associated Press found that unapproved parts played a role in 174 aircraft crashes or less serious accidents from May 1973 through April 1996, resulting in 17 deaths and 39 injuries. None involved major commercial carriers. But critics, including outgoing Sen. William Cohen, R-Maine, suggest the FAA may gloss over the role bogus parts played in some accidents because it does not want the onerous responsibility of regulating the parts industry. James Frisbee, quality control chief at Northwest Airlines until his 1992 retirement, is among those who feel bogus parts have contributed to many more accidents than federal records indicate. "It's very, very hard to pin the cause of an accident on a part that failed. . . especially when the airplane is scattered over 5 acres," he said." WhisperToMe (talk) 06:30, 3 June 2011 (UTC)

European tsunamis
There's a difference between a G5 speedy and the other criteria: the others apply to the page because of its content, but this one only applies because of the creator, and going by the content alone, there's often no reason to delete. For this reason, G5 is much more optional than the others, since deletion runs a significantly better chance of impacting the encyclopedia negatively. Consequently, I decided to apply WP:IAR here. I suppose that you could take it to AFD if you really want, but it's not eligible anymore for G5, both because the first tag has been declined, and also because I made a non-insignificant edit to it, and I'm not a banned or blocked user.

Cathay Pacific flight 780
Seems ur a stuburn bunch of people who are rather more interested by rules then to take the opportunity to learn from other peoples' knowledge and experience. Pitty. But hey here we go for some arguments... the reason I do this lies not in the fact that this accident (and article) was so worldshocking, but to me and i am sure to most off the other passengers a board of this flight it was an experience which we will not easely forget... no wonder if you think about the fact we landed on double speed stalled landing and the knowledge that if the plane should have lost momentum we would have crashed (to my impression, but that is only an impression both engines were not functioning 1/2 minute before landing. In relation to the former the high speed made sense to me as the plane was piloted with steep descent just with reason to keep spedd thus momentum so we could get to the runway. My impression that both engines were out lies also in the logic we made a stalled landing as there was no engine power to lift the nose) The reason I know the names of the pilots is easy. Short after take off the commander talks to the passengers telling who they are and giving a description of route, time, weather etc. - second me, my husband and a Steward in business (called Henry) have been helping all the time with the evacuation. After we jumped the emergency chutes first emergency exit at left (evacuation of business class passengers went very fast and smoothly), we ran to the middle emergency chute to catch people at the end of the chute so it could be fastly cleared when other passengers jumped and to avoid people to be hurt by falling on high speed on the tarmac. Passengers were directed to the end of the grassfield (about 300 m further) on the left side of the plane. After a (long) time busses came to pick us up. Me and my husband were still with two crewmembers(we helped with) talking about the happenings so I asked confirmation of the names of the pilots to them with the request to forward us our gratitude and compliments. They didnt do anything more then their job and damn a hell of good job. Taking into account the situation they saved lives of many as circumstances were there we could have crashed. So again here is your source... not from copy and paste articles, nor hearsay but first source. And then I think to myself, who do you think u are to undo every time my adding on a mediaforum which is free ?. Who are you to judge what is important, relevant or what can be written or not in an article ?. I am sure it wouldnt bounce in ur head one microsecond to delete the name of Capt Sully from the article of US Airways Flight 1549.Well these australian guys bringing our plane to save landing were not less then Capt Sully. Gimme a reply on ann.higuet@refaco.nl I will send u even pictures which were taken right after evacuation and proof I was on that flight. Open your mind and dont stay stuck in your own lil world. Kind regards Ann--Caprichasma (talk) 10:34, 9 July 2011 (UTC)

Strahan
I can agree with your reason for reverting the template (a) if the template is strictly for scheduled services only - (b) however what do you do with airports that have seasonal usage or chartered usage or genuine historical usage ? - maybe we need a category of airports that are in the status of being (C) utilised for emergencies (when there are serious emergency issues, Strahan is the only operating airport for the west coast for normal aircraft (I think emergency landings have occurred near zeehan in historical context but not sure where) )  (d) seasonal tourist charter usage? If you had ever been in a cessna in a bumpy ride from hobart when the regular services existed, strahan is a relief to get to when queenstown was closed becuase of fog, wind or conditions, I can tell you SatuSuro 07:43, 1 August 2011 (UTC)

Nah it was less the actual main template - it was more trying to get a heirarchy of used commercially/used erratically/still open but not used much sort of thing - whether that status goes into a separate templete - or simply is stated in category space, that was more my query SatuSuro 22:58, 1 August 2011 (UTC)

Thats fine np - so either a regular commercial one on the template otherwise just a landing strip - checkout Outlaws inc story on the abs news board - http://www.abc.net.au/news/2011-08-02/inside-the-war-zones-illegally/2820366 SatuSuro 23:21, 1 August 2011 (UTC)

The relevant passage in the ref for 12 killed is "На борту находились 36 человек, в том числе трое детей. В результате авиационного события пострадали 12 человек, погибших нет. Воздушное судно получило значительные повреждения.", which Google translate renders as "On board were 36 people, including three children. As a result, aviation event affected 12 people who died there. The aircraft received substantial damage."

You may want to look at Special:Contributions/Ashley_Dovey and in particular the articles FedEx Express Flight 1478 and Tajik Air Flight 3183 which the editor created.
