GA Reassessment

[edit]

Article (edit | visual edit | history) · Article talk (edit | history) · Watch
Since its promotion way back in 2015, this article has deteriorated, and it is not up to GA standards anymore. It has had inline banners for years, has gathered some cn tags, and has other clearly unsourced items. A few of the sources are now deprecated, and would need replacing. The article as a whole has also bloated quite a bit, and now has 85kB of prose, despite the existence of quite a few dedicated subpages. There are numerous short subsections, and there is some stilted prose where recent updates have not been integrated into the rest of the article. One of the inline tags is an update tag from 2018, suggesting there may be recent developments that need to be covered. CMD (talk) 16:25, 10 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Power Outage

[edit]

I removed the text As the power interruption was not due to engine flame-out, per ATSB, it may have been the result of manually switching off the aircraft's electrical system. This is not a correct statement - footnote 19 on Pg 33 of the cited reference states that the earlier power outage at 18:25 was not due to engine flame-out and could have been caused by manually switching the power configurations. This does not mean that the final power outage was also caused by manual power shut-down. It was caused by engine flame-out! Farawayman (talk) 13:03, 11 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]


With no action taken up, closing this as a delist. CMD (talk) 15:29, 31 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The presumed cause of the end-flight power outage and subsequent repower-up, is main engine flameout followed by APU start-up. However, if there was an active pilot, manual switching of power configurations cannot be ruled out. TBILLT (talk) 15:09, 28 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
