Does this include deaths owing to military action? I'm thinking of Lothar von Richthofen in particular, as it has just been added to a sub-cat of this.
This category should be renamed Deaths in aviation accidents or incidents. Although there is a line at the top of this parent category, that line is not on all its subcategories. Deaths in makes it clear it only applies to fatalities, not to injured survivors or mentally damaged survivors. People who were in a plane that crashed, or were in a building that a plane crashed into, but did not die as a result, would still technically be victims of that crash, especially if they suffered long-term disability and / or post-traumatic stress disorder as a result.
