SkyWest & American Eagle will need a new data row for the (20) E175s which are now contracted. Hope all is well. AirOpsExecnPlt (talk) 23:15, 30 January 2020 (UTC)

I'm doing great! Hope you are too. I couldn't find any additional information about the seating configuration so I left that part blank but the data and rows have been added. --KDTW Flyer (talk 00:27, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

Thanks! (new first granddaughter :-) ) AirOpsExecnPlt (talk) 11:01, 31 January 2020 (UTC) Small detail btw, can you flip the American and Alaska 76 seat E175 rows to make it alphabetical on the SkyWest page? AirOpsExecnPlt (talk) 11:33, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

Congrats on your granddaughter! I have flipped the Alaska and American rows --KDTW Flyer (talk 04:50, 2 February 2020 (UTC)

Airport sourcing requests

How are you doing? Hope all is good in these unprecedented times. Just source articles where specified:

  • Hilo International Airport (ITO): Where it says; The airport encompasses 1,007 acres.. Source with Form 5010.

Accidents and Incidents: January 6, 1967 incident; source with Aviation Safety Network report for incident.

  • Bradley International Airport (BDL): go to second paragraph, where it says.. with over 6.75 million passengers in 2019, source with Calendar Year 2019 Passenger Numbers PDF.

Go to Enplaned Passenger statistics; 2019, Reference#60, correct to go to BDL Calender Year 2019 Passenger Numbers PDF.

  • Indianapolis International Airport (IND): In infobox, change references so it goes to Airline Activity Report December 2019.
  • Stockton Metropolitan Airport (SCK): Update FAA diagram in infobox.

Thank you for your time and effort and stay safe. Have a good weekend and week ahead.2601:581:8402:1EE0:F4FF:4AB2:32BF:5F87 (talk) 21:51, 2 May 2020 (UTC)

Republic Airways

So, I screwed up the Republic Airways page fleet chart, can you tweak it please. AirOpsExecnPlt (talk) 14:33, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

Fixed! You accidentally removed the tiny piece of code that specifies one of the E-175 rows so that's why the table went all funny but it's fixed now. Have a nice Memorial day weekend and stay healthy.--KDTW Flyer (talk 22:47, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

Message about Manhattan

I'm responding to a "scolding" I received, about something I know nothing about.

I clicked on a "message" sign at the top of the page (as I was looking up something about Egypt). I read the message that told me I had made an error (that hurts me to the quick) about something in Manhattan I have absolutely no idea what the message meant. I have NEVER written anything about Manhattan, nor did I make a correction of (whatever it was) that had to do with Manhattan.

I made a small correction a few days/weeks ago, when someone wrote about a person and made a tiny error. But, it had nothing to do with Manhattan. (I've never even heard of the topic of whatever it was about Manhattan.) So, I'm sorry but I have no idea how this all works.

The few times I've tried to correct errors, I wind up getting scolded. I guess there is no room for accuracy these days. Sorry! I'll try to resist the urge to correct errors in the future. It's the "preacher/ teacher" in me that persists with the notion that facts (large or small) need to be attended to (for the greater good). I don't wish to be a bother, but I can't imagine how you came to me? Surely, the person who posted the changes is the person you want to speak to. I can't see how the "connections" can be so poor that you find the wrong person. Can't the person who runs Wikipedia make it work properly? It seems odd that I get scolded for something that I know nothing about. It doesn't seem fair, but then, I'm a conservative, so I'm a whipping boy these days. I simply do not understand how Wikipedia works. It all seems so random. The link says "edit" but if one edits, one gets scolded for something that someone ELSE edited. That just seems unacceptable to me.

Now, I can't figure out how to get out of here. I don't know what all the "editor" type symbols are for. PUBLISH CHANGES sounds very official but I guess that's all I have to deal with. So, I'm sending this plaintive wail to the atmosphere, who knows what I will hear back. I'm sure I've broken at least 20 Wikipedia rules this time.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.42.232.226 (talk • contribs) 21:40, 15 June 2020 (UTC)

Hilo Int'l Airport (ITO) sourcing requests

Hello. Hope all is good with you. Go to Hilo Intl Airport article;

  • Go to first paragraph, where it says: The airport encompasses 1,007 acres...source with FAA Airport Master Plan (form 5010) for ITO.
  • Go to Accidents and Incidents: January 6, 1967 incident, source with Aviation Safety Network Report from External Links.
  • August 4, 1971 incident should be transferred to LAX Intl Airport article; Accidents and Incidents 1970s, after 6/6/1971 incident and sourced with Aviation Safety Network report from external links. Occurred a few minutes from landing at LAX. Is missplaced, didn't occur at Hilo.

Thank you for your time and effort, do have a few more requests in the future, will space out accordingly. Have a good week.2601:581:8402:1EE0:304C:CD3D:3958:6A95 (talk) 16:23, 3 September 2020 (UTC)

ATW CLT Route

Hey! Not sure if you heard but AA just announced a new route from ATW to CLT starting November 5. I added the statement to the destinations table, could you make sure I added it correctly and add CLT to the map on the ATW article. Thanks, --198.150.183.44 (talk) 17:24, 8 September 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for doing that and you did a good job! It didn't say it in the source you provided but in another, it did mention that this will start off as a seasonal route so I did move the data down to seasonal and CLT has been added to the ATW map. --KDTW Flyer (talk 21:10, 8 September 2020 (UTC)

TXL closure

Please note your change to Tegel Airport is based on a wrong assumption. TXL closed for good for ALL traffic and operations on 8 November, not just scheduled or commercial activities. The transitional period until May 2021 has purely legal implications as explained in the given German sources.

Sourcing requests

Hello. Hope things are good. Three minor requests today:

  • Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER): Go into edit history and go to November 7, 2020 at 15:01. Where it says BER covers 1,470 hectares of land. Put that in Airport Overview, Runways, third paragraph by itself. Was deleted by another user and wanted it sourced and didnt want it in the lead paragraph. Source with (google) Facts and Figures - Berlin Brandenburg Airport.
  • Indianapolis International Airport (IND):Go to Reference #2, correct source so it goes to: Airline Activity Reports-December 2019.
  • Bradley International Airport (BDL); In second paragraph, reference#3, sentence that ends with--with over 6.75 million passengers in 2019 and reference #65, Annual Enplaned Passengers table 2019 Source with:Traffic Stats-2019 Passenger Numbers. I tried linking them but it looks like it cant be done. Try again, if it doesn't, just leave it. Reference #65 doesnt go to the website. It goes to nothing.

Thank you for your time. Have a good week.2601:581:8402:1EE0:304C:CD3D:3958:6A95 (talk) 19:01, 11 November 2020 (UTC)

Delta Air Lines reported incidents addition

Hello. Sorry to bother you so soon, but I want this added to the above page(section). Could have done this all by myself, but the Delta Air Lines page is locked out. Here are the details added (place below 7/6/1996 incident):

  • Flight: 554
  • Date: October 19, 1996 (Source with Aviation Safety Network id=19961019-0, title=N914DL)
  • Aircraft: MD-88
  • Location: LaGuardia Airport
  • Description: Just before touchdown, after an Instrument landing system (ILS) approach to runway 13, the right wing struck approach lights. The main landing gear then struck the runway end and broke off, causing the aircraft to skid down the runway for 2,700 feet. The plane was substantially damaged, but later repaired and placed back into service. The MD-88 remained in service until it was retired on August 25, 2018. (Source with Planespotters.net N914DL)
  • Fatal: 0
  • Serious: 0
  • Minor: 3
  • Uninjured: 60
  • Ground: 0

Yes, could have done this myself and I know now how to source additions with Aviation Safety Network. Thank you for your time.2601:581:8402:1EE0:304C:CD3D:3958:6A95 (talk) 13:19, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
