Incorrect citation[edit]

The article has this paragraph:

A National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) hearing was called to investigate the reasons behind the accident. Captain Asoh took the stand as first witness and supposedly said, in answer to why he had landed in the bay, "As you Americans say, I fucked up."

The problem is that if you check that citation which is a link to The Fifth Discipline, it doesn't validate what the sentence says at all — which is a rather preposterous statment to begin with... leading at least this reader to wonder if the article is bogus or real. 842U (talk) 16:31, 16 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect link[edit]

A link on this page goes to the page about Jerry Harvey, but it should go to Jerry B. Harvey at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_B._Harvey —Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.83.66.224 (talk) 00:11, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Vulgar language[edit]

Is it permissable for any Wikipedia article not related to swearing to include words usually termed as vulgar? Just wondering. 707 (talk) 22:08, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, why shouldn't it? 94.218.180.222 (talk) 10:33, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It can if it's relevant to the topic in some way (not intrusive and irrelevant). See "Wikipedia:Principle of least astonishment"... AnonMoos (talk) 14:21, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Accidental EMP damage to altimiter[edit]

I have never seen any documentation that would back up this story, but according to a person who was working there at the time, the airline was accidentally hit with an EMP that originated in Fremont and was pointed out over the Bay. According to him, the EMP generator was packed up the very next day after the accident and shipped to White Sands.

A FOIA request might find something, or might not. If true, it might have been too embarrassing to make a record.Keith Henson (talk) 19:11, 2 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
