Change title?[edit]

Because several other sources referred to this flight as Airborne Express Flight 827 rather than ABX Air Flight 827. I'm considering changing the title to that, but the NTSB uses both names and the FAA states that the aircraft was owned by ABX Air. Should it be changed or stay the same?

Which part of this is misphrased?[edit]

"Captain Avery stated that the stall speed was 122 knots (140 mph; 226 km/h), and Waelti stated that the stick shaker would activate at 128 knots (147 mph; 237 km/h), which was 6 knots (6.9 mph; 11 km/h) before the stall speed." ??? Rewrote to clarify that "before" means chronologically earlier as they are reducing speed) 08:20, 26 December 2021 (UTC) (Dfoofnik not signed in)
