Orders and deliveries.

The template need updated as it is used on a couple articles. I’m lost on how the current numbers fit with the data on Boeing’s website. Also, the link that is attached to the template needs updated as Boeing has changed their website. Before I go messing with it, would someone else that has worked on the numbers before like to take a shot at it? Like I said, the math does not add up to me give the data on their site. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BlackBird1008 (talk • contribs) 16:45, 19 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Um, no, they're all correct. It's the -700/-800/-900 series nacelles that have the pronounced cheeks for the engine accessories, the MAX nacelles are more rounded. Acroterion (talk) 15:33, 21 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Crash, not accident

I'm tired of using the word "accident" regarding transportation system fatalities. It's a loaded, political word used to dismiss deaths and injury as unavoidable and/or unpredictable. We need to stop using the word "accident" throughout Wikipedia regarding transportation deaths. It's already being phased out in news publishing best practices.

It's extremely frustrating that this is still being debated.
