Talk:Muhammad bin Ladin

message: Your article concerning Binladen is incorrect. Mohammed Bin Laden did not die in San Antonio, Tx, he died in a air plane crash in Saudi on his way to a construction project.
:The above anon. User:70.32.84.133 attempted to substitute "an ultralight" for the plane crashed by Salem bin Laden in San Antonio, Texas 1988, at Bin Laden family. He was in fact  flying a BAC 1-11, a short-range jet airliner which had been bought in July 1977 by Prince Mohammed Ben Fahd (PBS "Frontline"). That plane's flight log had been a subject of some interest because the same plane was said to have been used in the summer of 1980 by negotiators in the so-called "October Surprise" (the alleged conspiracy by Ronald Reagan's supporters to delay resolution of the Iran Hostage Crisis until after the US presidential election). An ultralight would be impractical for a London-Madrid hop; a BAC 1-11 ideal. A very interesting attempted switch. --Wetman 04:47, 30 July 2005 (UTC)

thread_title: Crash info

message: The Osama Bin Laden article puts him as the seventeenth son "Various accounts place Osama as his seventeenth son" but this article says 16th, both unsourced. Some consistency would be good here  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.4.192.102 (talk) 22:31, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: This article is closely associated with Osama bin Laden because Mohammed bin Awad bin Laden was Osama's father. It's mentioned in the article and the template. -- Irn (talk) 15:15, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Confused 

message: Restarting discussion rather than adding to the 11-year-old thread. Does anyone have additional published information about the 1967 plane crash? Aviation-safety.net says 3 Sep 1967, Beechcraft G18S, aircraft registration HZ-IBN, msn BA-493, at the Usran airstrip; however, within the Wikipedia aviation community, ASN is not generally viewed as satisfying WP:RS, and the source for the ASN entry is apparently a Canadian web forum, definitely dicey and WP:USERGENERATED. Additionally, HZ-IBN was the registration code of the aircraft involved in the 2015 Blackbushe Phenom 300 crash which killed three other members of the bin Laden family, and this seems like a dubious coincidence to me (like someone was indiscriminately combing Google and scrambled the information). I've tried checking the Saudi General Authority of Civil Aviation website for info about the 1967 crash but I can't read Arabic. Carguychris (talk) 14:35, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
