Talk:Avianca Flight 011

message: Many preachers seem to be telling a story of a pilot who ignored a GPWS (Ground Proximity Warning System) warning, saying "shut up, gringo!".  This flight seems to be the most likely candidate from the details of the story.  Are there transcripts of the cockpit voice recorder of this incident to verify this account?

thread_title: Verifying tale

message: So you write, the aircraft captured the ils as is standard, but on the wrong track. What do you mean on the wrong track, you can't capture an ils on the wrong track. Then you write they descended below the MDA, an ils doesn't have an MDA, it has a DH. And then you say THIS CAUSED the pilot to begin a right turn? That doesn't make sense at all! Do pilots always make a right turn when descending below MDA or DH or whatever you're trying to say.
Where did you get this information from. It's nonsense in the way it is described here!
Either correct it or delete the whole article.

thread_title:  This article makes no sense 

message: It also looks like it was copied word for word from the Aviation Safety Network article. Camcurwood (talk) 17:21, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Only four/five years later: the copied text has been deleted by me, it still matches the source closely, the origin is from September 2008. A rewrite will be necessary, also deletion of all the previous versions is recommended. --Mopskatze (talk) 16:05, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

replies: text:  Uhm: Talk:Avianca Flight 011/Temp is also a rewrite; sorry for the duplicate effort, it is necessary to coordinate using this talk page. --Mopskatze (talk) 23:08, 22 June 2013 (UTC)
replies: text:  Since I mainly removed the text, it should be easy to merge the two versions. Sorry for the mess.--Ymblanter (talk) 20:22, 24 June 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  Question 

message: After a bunch of good-faith edits, which included the translation of the Spanish article and removal of Spanish sources, our article became unreadable and unsourced. This is absolutely unacceptable. Whereas translations of other Wikipedia articles might be a good thing (and might be not a good thing), they absolutely should not harm the existing article. Removal of reliable sources is absolutely not acceptable. I reverted this to the previous state of the article. Please, let us do it in small portions, making sure that the quality of the article is not deteriorated.--Ymblanter (talk) 07:56, 1 October 2018 (UTC)

replies: text:  I am EXTREMELY sorry, I actually thought it would work, but it didn't. I did not intend for it to end up this way. I'm not the best at source editing TBH. I took your advice and made a draft: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Tigerdude9/Avianca_Flight_011 Please forgive me for this incident. I did not intend for it to end up this way, and I am sorry. Tigerdude9 (talk) 11:57, 1 October 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: , I basically summarized the salient facts from the accident and the investigation, and used English sources and English citation templates. I think it makes sense to use English sources instead of Spanish sources, since this is the en:wp, and Spanish citation templates don't work on the en:wp either, as can be seen in your draft. But now that you've created a draft, if you think there is more info that is useful and should be added, it should be easier now to edit. And on another note, it wasn't a bad idea to migrate this article here from the es:wp, but it probably would have been a good idea to put it into draft space first to work on, before putting it in the main space. If you need further help, just let me know. Isaidnoway (talk) 01:35, 2 October 2018 (UTC)
