A fact from Pan Am Flight 121 appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 8 September 2016 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that Gene Roddenberry(pictured) was the surviving flight officer from the crash of Pan Am Flight 121 in the Syrian desert in 1947?
I did what was hopefully a correction of a word here that had already been questioned by another editor. I gave the explanation "probably 'Hotel' as in 1952 source https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Aviation_Accident_Report:_Northeast_Airlines_Flight_801/Supplemental_Data)" -- seemingly sensibly replacing the word "Board" in what was "Lexington Board" -- because I found the 1952 source that located a different roughly contemporary CAB hearing at the Lexington Hotel. I don't have access to the original, primary source -- David Alexander's book, p. 95. It's not digitally accessible via Google Books. If anyone can confirm here the change I made I'd appreciate it. Meanwhile I do think it's 'good enough' to stay in the article but am open to alternative opinion or reversion. Thanks. Swliv (talk) 13:25, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
