Find correct name
The airport is not listed as João Paulo II anywhere.
The airport's own website calls itself simply Ponta Delgada, and has no mention of João Paulo.
Template:Regions of Portugal: statistical (NUTS3) subregions and intercommunal entities are confused; they are not the same in all regions, and should be sublisted separately in each region: intermunicipal entities are sometimes larger and split by subregions (e.g. the Metropolitan Area of Lisbon has two subregions), some intercommunal entities are containing only parts of subregions. All subregions should be listed explicitly and not assume they are only intermunicipal entities (which accessorily are not statistic subdivisions but real administrative entities, so they should be listed below, probably using a smaller font: we can safely eliminate the subgrouping by type of intermunicipal entity from this box).

@Asqueladd If you're referring to Iberian, the subpopulation of 39 or so orcas that migrates from the Strait of Gibraltar up along the coast of Portugal and Spain is known as the 'Iberian orca' population. I was reluctant to use the term "attacks" though. While most sources use that term, it may misrepresent the behavior. I think a title without attacks would be better, but "interactions" and "incidents" both seem vague/understated. I'm open to suggestions. gobonobo+c01:40, 30 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
If stopping the engine halts the attack, then maybe that is what is causing it?
Very possible that there is an acoustic vibration resonating between the engine and the hull transmitted thru the water via the rudder? Portuguese solution is simply to add more acoustic pollution to the sea. Even something simple as isolation pads between hull and engine mount could help, have marinas stopped using them there? Or, even a slight change in recent engine design could be involved. 2A00:23C7:CA0C:4F01:C05E:4D8C:30FD:BED4 (talk) 13:53, 1 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
