The cockpit voice recorder reveals the level of desultory conversation taking place on the flight deck during the final five minutes of the flight, when all attention should have been focused on making either a safe landing or a safe missed approach. But the current picture accompanying the article seems odd to have -- it's a DC-9, yes, but it's a different airline and time. It is not clear if the one is included in the three, but in any case I don't see any way of reconciling these numbers with the statement "killing 71 of the occupants".

Perhaps someone might see if the owner of this picture I havn't compared to see if there is any new information, but several facts are verified in the article.

We found what we believe to be the flight recorders.

We started out this trip with the goal of finding the black box — the cockpit voice recorder and the flight data recorder — of Eastern Airlines Flight 980. - According to the summary, there were 82 (78 passengers + 4 crew) on-board. Whitewash it away, but it is certainly not original research as someone claims. Cockpit crew attacked by former employee while in flight: 26-Apr-1994: China Airlines 140 : A300 : Crashed during inadvertent go-around: 2-Jul-1994: USAir 1016 : DC-9 : Windshear on final: 10-Aug-1994: Korean Air 2033 : A300 : Overran runway on landing: 8-Sep-1994: USAir 427: B737 : Crashed after uncommanded rudder deflection

In that case, it is the Russian WP article that is likely to be better sourced and more accurate than the English one based on English sources. An investigation by the National Transportation Safety Board of the accident determined multiple crew errors were

The summary states that three later died of burns, and one of other injuries much later. The incident occurred on September 11, 1974, killing 72 of the 82 people on board.

We also had a goal to live a life of adventure, to challenge ourselves physically and mentally, and to come back with a story.

A 'neutral' presentation is one thing, but suppressing the degree of pilot inattention by suppressing the CVR recording is taking things a bit far.

About 50 seconds later, the CVR recorded the sound of the autopilot disconnect. Eastern Air Lines Flight 401, operated by a four-month-old Lockheed L-1011, registration N310EA, carrying 163 passengers and 13 crewmembers, departed New York-JFK at 21.20h EST for a flight to Miami. -- Digging a hole in the ground because you are not paying attention is a serious lapse of cockpit discipline and simply having read the transcript isn't exactly 'Original Research."

The scheduled flight was from Charleston Municipal Airport to Chicago O'Hare, with an intermediate stop in Charlotte. I don't really know how Wikipedia handles pictures, and what is and isn't appropriate. The flight was uneventful until the approach to Miami. In addition, a persistent attempt to visually identify the nearby During the investigation, the issue of the flammability of passengers' clothing materials was raised.

The wreckage was scattered over a large area of a glacier covered with snow.

Over the decades, several search expeditions were only able to recover a small amount of debris, and searches for the flight recorders were unsuccessful.

This would leave 69 people (82 - 13 = 69) dead initially. It also claims that 13 people survived the initial impact. There was evidence that passengers who wore double-knit The NTSB released its final report on May 23, 1975.

Flight 212 to descend to 8,000 feet. If you then retranslate it back into English, you risk adding errors upon errors.The banner in question is meant e.g. Only in that case does it make sense to expand the Eglish WP article with text taken from the Russian one. The accident remains the highest-altitude controlled flight into terrain in commercial aviation history.

"LOL@Tigerdude9, another editor and I already tried once to explain to you why suggesting to import from the Russian Wikipedia an article about an accident occurred in the US, to a US-built aircraft, operated by a US airline is a nonsensical piece of advice.
