Talk:American Airlines Flight 1 (1962)

message: This is the fourteenth straight accident report I've read that states that aircraft flight numbers are normally retired after fatal accidents, but "not for this flight". I have a sneaking suspicion that this was nowhere near as common back in the 1950s and 1960s as it is now. Of course, back then there were a LOT!! more accidents than there are now, so they would have run out of numbers had they retired them.
In the US alone in 1962 there were 15 major (hull loss) airliner accidents, plus another 11 to US airlines outside of the United States! Nowadays it's a bad year if there are two. --Charlene.fic 23:07, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

message: Maybe you also mention Louise Sarah Eastman (born: Lindner) as one of the victims? She's the mother of Linda McCartney.

Plus see ANI discussions here and here. There is one exception- the cockpit crew of the aircraft involved....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 17:51, 18 June 2021 (UTC)

replies: text: The report is already used as a reference in several places via the National Transportation Library, though the link was broken. I've updated it to https://rosap.ntl.bts.gov/view/dot/33668, which contains the same PDF. Having a backup source for the report is good, though. clpo13(talk) 22:48, 22 November 2021 (UTC)
