If there is a change of planes, it's not a direct flight, if not, we will fly "directly" to many other destinations, and of course I will keep erasing that inexistent flight to JFK.

The Original Barnstar
I hereby present Jetstreamer the Original Barnstar for his effort in improving airline articles. Great work buddy! Please spread the love. Sp33dyphil "Ad astra" 10:57, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you very much buddy! Warmest regards.--Jetstreamer (talk) 11:05, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
No problems. Good to see the project gaining some momentum, with someone like you behind it. Hey, can you help me nominate Vietnam Airlines to GA status? It's been an ambition of mine :) Sp33dyphil "Ad astra" 11:09, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, you got it. --Jetstreamer (talk) 11:15, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Please feel free to remove unsourced and unnecessary info. Just to let you know, some external links are dead. Sp33dyphil "Ad astra" 11:26, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I'd rather not to touch anything for the time being. Do you think the article is ready to pass a GA review in its current version? I have nominated it, let the reviewers act. Just wait for the comments, if any.--Jetstreamer (talk) 11:29, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The GAN has just received some more points -- can you help me address them? Thanks! --Sp33dyphil ©© 08:49, 24 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Yes. Actually, I will start improving the accidents/incidents section.--Jetstreamer (talk) 10:15, 24 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

KLM cargo

KLM cargo serve Almaty and Moscow with Martinair aircraft, but another editor is not allowing these to be included/marked with coloured bars in the list, these are not Martinair cargo destinations, only operated for KLM cargo by them, he is using some rigid industry guideline for exclusion, rather than just letting it be a wiki list for general knowledge, I'm sure to any casual observer its irrelevant they just want to see the destinations not who is operating them on KLM's behalf, and in any case four of Martinair 747F are in full KLM cargo livery making it even more valid, infact Martinair cargo's own two 747F are currently flying as either all white or just one in full Martinair livery, so bulk of the operations in all regions of Asia are using the KLM aircraft in KLM colours, you can check on AF-KLM cargo website schedules for the two cities status. 116.71.17.64 (talk) 18:09, 3 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please note that KLM destinations is not yet finished, as there are still terminated destinations to be added. Thanks for adding some of them. I will get it finished as soon as I can, time permitting. Another piece of advice. You can save space in the html code in any article regarding flags, as you can use redirects. For instance, if you want the flag of my country displayed with a link to the country's article, you may just write {{ARG}} in order to get  Argentina. Check this out for a complete list of available flags. Separately, it's been a while that you've been active at Wikipedia; yet you did it all the time anonymously. Just wondering: have you considered to create an account rather than editing anonymously? Regards.--Jetstreamer (talk) 19:02, 3 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I have one but thought its not necessary so only used it to edit locked articles and others while still logged in, but will do so from now on. Thanks for the info on the flags. Can you help change title of Iranian Airlines article? they dropped that branding and are back to Saha, I have added references and information to the article body clarifying that. 116.71.17.64 (talk) 19:06, 3 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ethiopian Airlines: Mahe service

Ethiopian Airlines announced here in their press release 281 that it will postpone the Mahe launch. However, http://www.airlineroute.net says that they will launch the route on 22 January 2012 but the airline's press release mentions no relaunch date and that it has postponed service until further notice. A user added it to the list but removed it saying that the airline has postponed service until further notice. Also, Mahe (or Seychelles) has been removed from the booking engine on their website. Can you find a source saying that the service is postponed until January 22?Snoozlepet (talk) 02:49, 15 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Will try to find a source, but reliable sources are not that many.--Jetstreamer (talk) 10:06, 15 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The only reliable source I can find is the press release from Ethiopian Airlines itself saying its postponed until further notice. Airlineroute.net is not personal blog and is not a reliable source. I would wait and see if they update the service. Snoozlepet (talk) 16:23, 15 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I'd stick to official information and just wait, rather than promptly adding the future destination into the article.--Jetstreamer (talk) 19:12, 15 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Recent activity of User:Islomchik

{{admin-help}} Hi there! I'd like to draw administrator's attention to the recent activity of User:Islomchik. I just don't know if this behavior deserves a sanction or not (I believe it certainly does), yet the user has made disruptive/unconstructive edits to a number of articles in the recent past, and more specifically to Uzbekistan Airways and Uzbekistan Airways destinations (both are in my watchlist) in a matter of hours. As far as I can guess from his/her talk page, this behavior is not new. All I did was to warn the user and to revert the changes he/she made, but I'm afraid it won't work for long. Regards.--Jetstreamer (talk) 22:15, 16 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If the user is doing simple vandalism, you should report them to WP:AIV, but if they are making more complex disruptive edits, a report at WP:ANI would be more appropriate. In either case, you'll need to provide diffs of the edits in question to facilitate the investigation. If you have further questions, feel free to restore the admin-help template above. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 13:54, 17 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Having looked in a little detail at the user's editing, I would say that you were a bit heavy handed with the warnings, as was user:Sven Manguard previously. If you look at the warnings from July 2011, they were both issued within a minute of each other. The second warning was issued for a transgression that took place before the first warning was issued. No further vandalism was carried out. We can assume the user got the message, even if the level 2 warning was, in my opinion, unnecessary.
With regards to your warnings, it would have been more appropriate to assume good faith in the first instance of the Uzbekistan Airways destinations editing. If anything, a level 1 notice would have sufficed. In the second instance, it's not clear at all that the edits made to Uzbekistan Airways were disruptive. I don't believe a level 4 notice was appropriate for that. Catfish Jim and the soapdish 14:13, 17 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, maybe you're right. I will relent the level of the last warning in the user's talkpage. Thanks to both!--Jetstreamer (talk) 14:18, 17 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, this message is to let you know about disambiguation links you've recently created. A link to a disambiguation page is almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles.

Viasa

Hi, i see your working on Viasa. Good job! I like your style of editing, you seem to pickup the forgotten wikipedia articles. Keep up the good work. --JetBlast (talk) 02:49, 22 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks JetBlast, I'm honored every time I get congratulations from you. I remember when I was a little boy attending the primary school and were took to an excursion to Ezeiza Airport. The aircraft we visited was actually a Viasa DC-10. How many memories! Perhaps this was the trigger to start editing the article. Regards.--Jetstreamer (talk) 10:18, 22 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism – User:Izzy.neon

{{admin-help}} Can any administrator block the user?. Can any administrator take a closer look at the user's activity? Already warned him/her in the wake of the recent vandalism/disruptive editing at Uzbekistan Airways. Thanks.--Jetstreamer (talk) 21:26, 24 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure that's vandalism (especially not the second changes you reverted), but I'm really not sure what that editor was trying to do there. But one thing I'd say is that you should not have given them an "Only warning" - just a plain level 1, then level 2, would be more appropriate, as those are a lot less condemnatory and are more friendly. And it wouldn't have hurt to just ask on their Talk page what they were doing and why. Anyway, there's no action needed immediately, but if you see it happen again, you should report it at WP:AIV - but as I say, just reverting and then asking in a friendly way what they're doing might be a better thing to try first -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 21:47, 24 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Will take your advice and relent the warning on the user's talk page. Thanks for your time.--Jetstreamer (talk) 21:50, 24 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Urgent input needed at WP:AIRPORTS

Hi Jetstreamer! We need to reach a consensus ASAP on how to list UA and CO flights on airport articles. When you get a chance, you can put your comments at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Airports#CO.2FUA_SOC_2011-11-30. Thanks! Snoozlepet (talk) 04:39, 1 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry

I am sorry for changing the Biman Bangladesh Destinations, but it said expansion needed. Also Biman started flying to Dammam, Milan, and Manchester. Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ahnaaf (talkcontribs) 13:16, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps you're referring to “Citation needed” (instead of “Expansion needed”), which stands for requesting sources that support the claims. Furthermore, the destinations you're mentioning were already included in the table.--Jetstreamer (talk) 13:24, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Aerolíneas Argentinas

Jetstreamer:

Thank you for your interest in Aerolíneas Argentinas.

I restored a couple of figures from the balance sheet added for reference, since this report segregated financials for Aerolíneas and Austral. I certainly appreciate the correction of the fleet numbers, not to mention your knowledge of the subject as a whole.

Please write back if you have any questions. I may be delayed a little, but I'll get back to you.

Regards,

Sherlock4000 (talk) 01:21, 20 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. Thank you too for editing the article. Despite the numbers you're introducing haven't been audited, they're better than nothing. Perhaps I will tidy them a bit, but won't remove them at all. Cheers.--Jetstreamer (talk) 01:32, 20 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Recent activity of User:83.104.131.188

{{admin-help}} Hello there! Can you please take a closer look at this user's recent behaviour? He/she has been vandalising articles by deliberately introducing factual errors into many airline related ones. I've recently placed three warnings on their talk page. It seems that a sanction is likely plausible here. Thanks.--Jetstreamer (talk) 20:36, 22 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

(s)he has not edited since the final warning, so I suspect they have logged off or they may have taken heed of that warning... The best way to get attention in future is to report them at WP:AIV - ideally when you see a bad edit after the final warning.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 20:56, 22 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your response. According to their talk page, this is not the first time s(he) acts this way. S(he) will see the warnings in their next login. Regards.--Jetstreamer (talk) 21:00, 22 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
And it's showing as a static IP at http://whatismyipaddress.com/ip/83.104.131.188, so I've added a static IP template to the page - means it's less likely to be multiple users (but can still be more than one user at a single address).  Ronhjones  (Talk) 21:19, 22 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This is just a heads up. I'm going to do some work on this very good article to neaten it up and make it sound better. I did one such edit yesterday. All I did was make minor word changes.[1] Like changing on to in and on to of. I just did another edit.[2] Most of what I did was rewording and clarifying. I made a small factual fix also.

Aviation accident articles are frequent edits of mine.(I've also created six to ten accident articles, Viasa Flight 742 and Northwest Airlink Flight 5719, are two examples) I do keep up with plane crash history though I am not overly familiar with Aeroflot's. So I will check the citations when doing the edits so to prevent me from making mistakes.

You have done a great deal of hard work and I acknowledge it. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any feedback on what I did. Sometimes I commit a typo in my fix, feel free to correct them if I don't catch it.[3] William 15:54, 24 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello there. Despite I regard it as one of the most important articles within the subject, it unfortunately is far from being complete, but I believe it can be taken to a featured list once it is finished. Of course you can contribute to the article, as any other editor can. For the time being I committed myself to completing the table for accidents occurred in the 1970s in order to get it finished asap. Following its completion, I will continue with another decade, and the final step will be merging all tables into a single one. I propose you to expand/copyedit the rest of the article, but you can contribute to it with anything you want. Please feel free to drop me a line with any of your thoughts regarding the page. Thank you.--Jetstreamer (talk) 23:18, 25 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

New York

I'm very sorry but you are confused, I live in Buenos Aires, and LAN doesnt fly directly to JFK, and if you dont belive me try @ Lan's website or @ http://www.aa2000.com.ar/ (the offical page of "Aeropuertos Argentina 2000) Saying Lan, connects EZE-JFK is a mistake, and confuses people. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.105.51.171 (talk) 01:21, 28 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Firstly, you should check the airline's website, not the airport's one. That said, I've checked LAN's website (just for fun as I'm already aware of the flight schedules), only to find that Flight LA532 operates daily EZE-SCL-JFK, without connections, it's a direct flight. There's a change of plane for the inbound flight.--Jetstreamer (talk) 01:29, 28 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If there is a change of planes, it's not a direct flight, if not, we will fly "directly" to many other destinations, and of course I will keep erasing that inexistent flight to JFK.
