2010 London Terrorist Plot
Should there not be reference in this article of the planned hijacking of an Air India flight bound for London Heathrow which was to be crashed into London itself. The planned attack was also masterminded by al-Qaeda as a follow up of the failed Christmas Day bombing of Northwest 253. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.46.224.21 (talk) 11:50, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
- (the above was unnecessarily deleted) Unclear. If there are citations, then perhaps. --Lexein (talk) 19:55, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
Name of airline
I think that the title of this article should now be Delta Airlines Flight 253, because NWA is no longer operational. In addition, the airplane was painted in the new Delta paint job. Anyone agree? --71.238.11.12 (talk) 20:40, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
- No, this is a historical article about the flight and when this incident occurred, the flight was operated by NW. Also, it does not matter what livery the aircraft is in, it matters who operated the flight. Spikydan1 (talk) 21:23, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
Agree w/Spiky. Which brings me to the caption of the first photo in the article. Can someone trim it? "with Delta Air Lines livery due to their ongoing merger at the time" seems a bit overly long ... perhaps at min delete "ongoing"?--Epeefleche (talk) 22:08, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
@Spikydan1: Okay, I understand now. Thank you for clarifying that. :) @Epeefleche: I just trimmed down the caption. Thx for mentioning it. :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.238.11.12 (talk) 03:00, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
- And FYI, per DL schedules, Delta Flight 253 is no longer routed AMS-DTW. 74.183.173.237 (talk) 18:19, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
Right, Delta now uses flight 272 as the AMS-DTW route departing Amsterdam at 8:40 AM in place of 253. --71.238.11.12 (talk) 20:19, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
Another Bullshit Wikipedia Article
As witnesses like Kurt Haskell have clearly indicated, Northwest Airlines Flight 253 was yet another false flag operation staged by intelligence agencies. Patrick F. Kennedy, an undersecretary for management at the State Department, has admitted that Abdulmutallab was deliberately let on the plane: http://detnews.com/article/20100127/NATION/1270405/Terror-suspect-kept-visa-to-avoid-tipping-off-larger-investigation.
