Why "preliminary findings" when final report was issued a while ago

This article needs some updating based on the final report. Having such a large section headed "Preliminary findings" is not really appropriate so long after the final report being released. I have already removed reference to an "uncontained" engine failure, as the final report does not describe the incident as such an event.

It if probably worth including the findings of the report that damage to passenger seating in a full aircraft presents problems. The concerns about flight attendants not being in their jump seats on landing is also an issue. The need for redesign of the cowl and its associated components is also a key piece of learning from the report.ThoughtIdRetired (talk) 08:41, 17 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Add section about aircraft

As of the date typed [at bottom], the wiki article for Southwest Airlines Flight 1380 doesn’t have a section about the aircraft and I do not know to probably start one.

I am aware the aircraft registration N772SW has been at VCV/KVCV (Victorville Southern California Logistics) since June, 2018. Source: https://www.planespotters.net/airframe/boeing-737-700-n772sw-southwest-airlines/3v0lyr

In the wiki for (seemingly) all other aircraft accidents have a section about the aircraft titled “Aircraft”; case in point wiki article for Southwest Airlines Flight 3472.

Naming the deceased passenger 2

I read all the arguments from Talk:Southwest_Airlines_Flight_1380/Archive_1#Naming_the_deceased_passenger and can see there exists a redirect to this article that names the victim. Furthermore sufficient time has passed for any initial caution to no longer apply.

I agree there is no need for Wikipedia to add to the visibility of this name, but there is no reason to pretend the identity has not been disclosed. There are good reliable sources for the identity, I added merely two.

Wrong Unit in the preliminary findings section

"it was about 12 inches (30 cm) spanwise and full width and weighed about 6.825 pounds (3.096 kg)."

The claimed weight of just over 3 tons strikes me as odd for a 30 cm part. 130.83.17.25 (talk) 06:31, 25 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Who wants to start a second page for the recent incident with this same aircraft? 167.137.1.15 (talk) 17:39, 5 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
