Citation error?[edit]

Can someone fix the citation error in the 7th citation? I can't figure out what's wrong with it. Ashershow1talk 03:45, 10 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your deletion of the "Aircraft" section broke the ref. Section has now been reinstated as it is accepted practice in aircrash articles to give a brief history of the aircraft involved. Mjroots (talk) 06:43, 10 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ambiguity[edit]

There are ambiguous statements: crashed on final approach, and crashed during a go-around. Final approach is before the runway, and the go-around phase is after the runway (on opposite sides of the airport), unless it had completed the missed approach procedure and was carrying out a second approach already.Nolween (talk) 06:12, 10 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I believe a go-around was initiated. From the location of the crash in relation to the airport (Aviation Herald) it looks like the aircraft was on the base leg. Mjroots (talk) 06:38, 10 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Crew[edit]

Aircraft[edit]

"There were also differing initial reports as to the type of aircraft that crashed, with either a Fokker 100 or a Boeing 727 claimed to have crashed,[4] although the aircraft was later confirmed to be a 727."

Speculation that it was a Boeing 727, but was later confirmed to be a 727?

Perhaps it was speculated to have been a 737, 747 etc?

The flight would normally have been flown by a Fokker 100, but the aircraft went tech and the 727 was substituted (source for this is non-RS). Mjroots (talk) 07:12, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Victims[edit]

9 + 73 = 77? Can someone please untangle the math there by checking against the official sources? -- Y not? 13:58, 24 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Did the results come out?[edit]

It's been a while; were the investigation results ever published? Yngvadottir (talk) 16:32, 9 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Iraqi crew?[edit]

It is very unlikely to have 5 crew members with Iraqi nationality working on-board an Iran Air plane. The original sources of this information (internet links) are not available at the moment either. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MikeEcho (talk • contribs) 21:04, 27 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I have reverted it back to the original entry, it looks like it was changed/vandalised in 2011 and nobody noticed, it all could do with a reliable reference. MilborneOne (talk) 00:14, 28 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
