==Speculated Season 14 Episode List==

Revision as of 15:38, 14 January 2015


Ongoing ratings, annual performance

Does anyone have access to data on the ratings this series is generating in its various viewing markets? And then how is the series trending long term? Is it doing better now - and is more popular now - w/ the viewership than it was five years ago, for example? Or what is considered the "best" season thus far, with the most compelling incidents and storylines? Has there been any decrease in the viewership in 2012-13, for example, owing to their being a dearth of interesting/exciting/deadly air crashes, or are the producers able to taxi-out equally engaging incidents? Any assessment/analysis of the long-term performance of the show and variances in annual/seasonal "quality" would be appreciated to know thanks! Azx2 01:43, 28 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Season 13 Episodes

Recently announced by Cineflix Rights. Interesting to see the "Special Compilation Episode". Could this be the final season? Hopefully not, it is doing well in the ratings. Anywhere here is the link before William takes it down.. Ha ha. http://s3.amazonaws.com/cflx-videos/int/assets/401/Mayday_13.pdf Qantasplanes (talk) 10:49, 24 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It said on the Wikipedia of TWA Flight 800 that the "Special Compilation Episode" will do that crash. So what do you think Qantasplanes? Are they doing TWA 800 as the "Special Compilation Episode"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.105.74.120 (talk) 21:56, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Nope, just some false info by some anonymous IP edit. Qantasplanes (talk) 06:22, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I would assume the "Special Compilation Episode" might be the series's 100th episode... They're about due for it. Paris1127 (talk) 12:07, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. Never believe in IP edits. Qantasplanes (talk) 05:45, 3 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I never believe in IP edits too. They so annoying. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.105.74.120 (talk) 10:17, 3 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
So what's the Special Compilation Episode about then? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.105.74.120 (talk) 13:17, 3 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe you should create an account considering you are an IP (anonymous). Anyway, that episode should be about incidents from past seasons. Qantasplanes (talk) 05:04, 4 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I think it will be the final episode, and they may review the main causes of the crashes. But it would still be a pity that they would finish the series. I liked it so much... However, not being that, there would be no reason for a Special Episode Compilation. And, if it says "Special Episode Compilation", why would it be TWA 800? One can obviously see it's no specific crash. Obviously, the guy who said that was lying. -- Sim(ã)o(n) * Wanna talk? See my efforts? 22:04, 5 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Three possibilities, the show would end (hopefully not, it's a great and informative) show, it's to celebrate the 100th episode or it's just another Science of Disaster episode. Qantasplanes (talk) 05:00, 6 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Right now, the page shows that the 100th episode will be during Season 13, but that it will be another crash. This is, of course, subject to change. I wouldn't be shocked if they move the compilation to episode 100. Perhaps it might have a behind the scenes section? I too hope it isn't going off the air. Paris1127 (talk) 19:13, 6 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Do you know what the Special Compilation Episode will be about? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.25.226.22 (talk) 14:52, 6 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I've noticed something I might consider at least peculiar. If you do not count with the Crash Scene Investigation and the Science of Disaster episodes, the Compilation will be the 101st episode. It may be the end of Mayday, with 100 episodes about plane crashes. -- Sim(ã)o(n) * Wanna talk? See my efforts? 14:32, 9 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It could also be another special episode (Science of Disaster). Maybe it the show would go on, which is great news Qantasplanes (talk) 06:55, 7 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Qantas, we're in a crisis... Maybe those guys are running out of money, and they're using this 100th episode milestone to make a final episode. But... not all is lost! What about Seconds From Disaster? Do you recall how, after the 3rd season, the show was suspended? I don't, because I've only started to watch it quite recently... Yet it restarted a few years later... Why shouldn't the same thing happen with Mayday? -- Sim(ã)o(n) * Wanna talk? See my efforts? 21:18, 7 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]


Hmm your probably right, maybe it will go on to hiatus for a couple of years but still hoping it will be another Science of Disaster episode, maybe Terrorism or Fires? Dunno Qantasplanes (talk) 08:33, 8 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, looking back at those specials, I'd say c'est dommage that only some of them were made... "Ripped Apart", "Fatal Flaw", "Who's Flying the Plane?", "System Breakdown" and "Cruel Skies" aren't the only causes for plane crashes... And why only 3 CSIs (Crash Scene Investigations)? What else can I say? C'est dommage, c'est dommage... -- Sim(ã)o(n) * Wanna talk? See my efforts? 19:26, 8 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

S11E6 - Turning Point's cause was not confirmed

As said in the movie around 37m40s, "Probable cause is fatigue failure of the Lower power control module", "[...] but the root cause of the failure is never found". I already altered the document, but if I misinterpreted any information, undo my change. --Sergio Abilio (talk) 01:56, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

What about hiding the causes?

Hello, people! I was wondering this... Call me stupid, but I like to watch Mayday documentaries without knowing, at first, the cause of the crash I'm going to watch, so the result of the investigation can be a surprise for me, but this list of episodes often includes the causes of the disasters, so it kinda breaks that suspense... You get me? I think maybe we should not tell here the causes of the crashes, so people can get a look into the list of episodes, without knowing, at first, the cause. If they do wanna know them without watching the show, they can always check out the Wikipedia page about it. So, what do you folks think? Should we? -- Sim(ã)o(n) * Wanna talk? See my efforts? 17:57, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

See WP:Spoiler. Qantasplanes (talk) 10:38, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I've seen it, thanks. Honestly, I'm in favor of making spoiler warnings in Wikipedia, if not hiding those sentences that can spoil something, but it does look like I'm part of a minority. OK, let's then leave things as they are... -- Sim(ã)o(n) * Wanna talk? See my efforts? 21:00, 19 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

My preference is not to add spoiler warnings but rather to delete the spoilers. In the context of this article, this renders moot the arguments and guideline against spoiler warnings. To my knowledge, there is no Wiki guideline that requires the inclusion of spoilers. I'm with the OP, these shows go out of their way to keep you in suspense for more than half of each episode, and these spoilers definitely detract from my enjoyment. While they admittedly have an upside, their downside is greater, imo. Mandruss (talk) 01:53, 24 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Special Compilation Episode

How many accidents will be in season 13 episode 11? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.25.226.22 (talk) 17:54, 11 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That is one of the greatest mysteries of Humanity. No one knows. So far, no one was told that, therefore, it's impossible to know. -- Sim(ã)o(n) * Wanna talk? See my efforts? 07:35, 12 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

On IMDb

IMDB fails WP:RS, so the edit was reverted....William 15:46, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

William, when is the edit going to pass then? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.25.227.170 (talk) 15:52, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

When there is a source for it that passes WP:RS....William 15:57, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Very good point from Willy Qantasplanes (talk) 06:19, 25 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Fine, find a source that passes it then. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.25.227.170 (talk) 11:05, 25 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request on 12 September 2013

Please update Australian name for series 10 episode 3 to "Power Struggle" Sandpit147 (talk) 06:52, 12 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Semi protected lock still here

September 24 has passed now. Why is the semi-protected lock still here? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.25.17.38 (talk) 15:20, 25 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A bot will be along soon and remove it just give it time to do the rounds. MilborneOne (talk) 18:41, 25 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Table color

What about changing that dark black table color into a bit brighter dark, for example into #242833? #000 is really distracting. FonEengIneeR7 (talk) 13:31, 20 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Good idea mate, i'll consider it. I'd like Will's opinion as well... Qantasplanes (talk) 11:07, 26 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I have no problem with a change of colors. Whatever looks best....William 02:13, 30 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Understood. I'll suggest a range of colors soon. FonEengIneeR7 talk 10:41, 30 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

What about these...?

1.#460D0D

2.#182F5F

3.#15430A

Personally, I prefer the second one. FonEengIneeR7 talk 12:17, 30 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Me to, i'd like to see the second one. Qantasplanes (talk) 04:31, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hey, I totally support the change in colour! That was a great idea, really! But what about going further and changing colours according to the season of the programme? Many other articles of TV shows in Wikipedia do that. I think it might be better, although somewhat laborious. If someone doesn't mind doing it... Thanks! (BTW, am I the only one here who spells "colour" with a U? :) ) -- Sim(ã)o(n) * Talk to me! See my efforts! 16:32, 17 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Why hasn't anyone replied to my question yet? Was it because of my last remark? Oh, I'm sorry if I've insulted anyone... I was just a joke, and not meaning to be hurtful... I even added the smiley face!... Sorry about that. I'll stop that now. But is anyone going to say something, please?... -- Sim(ã)o(n) * Talk to me! See my efforts! 19:01, 23 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Huh, I don't think anyone felt insulted by that... It's probabaly just because no one has seen it. Anyways, let's come back to your idea: I would not consider it to be a constructive step simply because we have 13 episodes (#14 is on its way) and thus would need 14 different colors which again would be very distracting. FonEengIneeR7 talk 09:12, 24 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I also doubt anyone has felt insulted. I was kind of just kidding, and trying to draw someone's attention to my question, and making sure there had been no problem... But, back to my question, do you really think different many different colours are distracting? Why? I'm aware of three other shows whose Wikipedia articles for their episodes lists have different colours for different seasons—namely, The Universe, The Big Bang Theory, and Modern Family (other TV shows I like). They have no more than seven seasons, that's true, but I just thought it could be interesting to vary upon colours. But, if no one else thinks this is a good idea, I'll have no problem leaving the tables like they are now... -- Sim(ã)o(n) * Talk to me! See my efforts! 22:44, 24 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Aircraft types

Another matter... What aircraft types should we use? I've spotted that the article is not consistent in using aircraft types, be it generic (e.g. Boeing 737-200) or specific (Boeing 737-222). I think we ought to agree on one type and then apply it to all episodes in each section. What's your opinion on that Qantasplanes? FonEengIneeR7 talk 16:18, 28 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

We dont normally use the Boeing customer or Airbus engine codes when we refer to aircraft types. MilborneOne (talk) 19:25, 28 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

What do the years indicate?

What do the years shown in brackets after each season actually indicate? FonEengIneeR7 talk 19:43, 9 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

For the episode list of the article it is when the season was produced. For the Alt titles it is when it aired... Qantasplanes (talk) 06:11, 12 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Air NZ 901 episode replacement

The reason why the Air NZ 901 episode won't air is because we already have our 10 normal season 13 episode titles. We just got the season 13 spin-off to go. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.26.95.29 (talk) 17:16, 16 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

That's WP:OR. Cineflix is still listing the episode. To avoid this problem, we can just list episodes only when their airing is confirmed. I can see the steam coming out of Qantasplanes when he reads that suggestion of mine....William 18:26, 17 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Really funny William, real funny *wink* Qantasplanes (talk) 05:22, 18 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Air NZ 901 could be in season 14 in my theory. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.26.95.29 (talk) 20:25, 29 January 2014 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.29.169.52 (talk) [reply]

That's what I anticipate as well, but let's wait until Cineflix releases the draft for S14. FonEengIneeR7 talk 21:50, 29 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
People's theories and wish list episodes anymore. There's been enough bs on this page in the past. For instance this[1] and read this talk page post[2] of mine. Better yet, a Mayday episode[3] on a 1960 plane crash where 600 people died....William 22:05, 29 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

At least we still have Air New Zealand (XL Airways Germany) Flight 888T. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.26.95.29 (talk) 17:17, 30 January 2014 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.29.169.52 (talk) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.31.193.105 (talk) [reply]

How do you know that it won't be aired with 100% certainty? They haven't exactly stuck to 10 episodes per season in the past, so this one could have 12. (talk)

The Air New Zealand 901 episode could be S13E11. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.29.186.145 (talk) 18:56, 7 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Season 14

This is very interesting.... http://www.pprune.org/tech-log/527802-b737-400-autothrottle.html Qantasplanes (talk) 05:25, 18 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, Qantasplanes, season 14 is in production! Can't wait! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.26.200.8 (talk) 16:58, 19 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Message boards fail WP:RS. So don't use it as a source for this article....William 21:33, 19 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
We get it William!!! Qantasplanes (talk) 04:24, 20 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Qantasplanes is right, William. We just get episode lists. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.26.200.8 (talk) 14:47, 20 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Aerolinee Itavia Flight 870

I removed the part ' but experts involved in an earlier investigation dispute this conclusion, stating that wreckage points towards a bomb explosion within the fuselage.' Why did I do this? The source may fail WP:RS. We don't know anything about the website or the author of this report. He writes 'In July 1992 the author was asked to submit a report on the aircraft wreckage recovered.' Was he involved in the earlier investigation. This needs to be looked into for the meantime. If someone gets a reliable source, it can go back up. Remember also this is just an episode guide. We do summaries, more full fledged descriptions of what may or may not have happened are for the crash article....William 20:32, 21 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Having viewed the episode this is the most prominent investigator interviewed and whose opinion the programme makers quite clearly adopt - the source is taken from the section covering his part of the investigation on the crash page. It is certainly an unusual case but if you view the episode a bomb is clearly the hypothesis advanced, but the show makes clear that controversy remains, with the reliability of the court case outcome heavily criticised. It would appear very curious then to synopsise the episode as being about a missile shootdown when the show then goes on to largely debunk that theory and conclude that a bomb was most likely (whether or not this agrees with the Italian court's recent decision). As a genuine question I'm not quite sure what source to cite for that fact other than the show itself, which I'm not sure would be reliably and permanently available online anywhere, hence why I chose to put the investigator's report to support it (the investigation team's findings having not been properly published in a formal third accident report but rather as part of a broader review of the case it seems, which apparently did not meet ICAO report standards).

Season 14 episode list

Because production on seasons 12 and 13 started in February and the episode lists for these seasones was released in March, I think the Season 14 episode list may be released in February because production on season 14 started in January. Am I right? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.26.200.8 (talk) 21:51, 1 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, perhaps.... FonEengIneeR7 talk 18:56, 4 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
A definite maybe....William 19:36, 4 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, let's wait and see. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.26.200.8 (talk) 16:31, 13 February 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.23.45.68 (talk) [reply]

Sorry FonEengIneeR7 and WilliamJE, I was wrong. Maybe in March then. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.27.24.110 (talk) 10:32, 1 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No need to apologize mate! FonEengIneeR7 talk 21:22, 2 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Into the Eye of the Storm?

I can't find any mentions of this episode (S13E06) anywhere but this article. Is the information correct? It looks like a hoax. Le Grand Bleu (talk) 14:15, 12 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Several online sources are listing it as episode 9, not episode 6, and it's listed on the Natgeo website, so it's legit, but maybe in the wrong place in the table. YSSYguy (talk) 14:41, 12 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
It is not a hoax. Mayday: Seasons XIII Episode 6 NOAA 42 Hurricane Hunter --FonEengIneeR7 talk 14:55, 12 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Well, maybe not a hoax, but it definitely needs to be relocated. Episode 6 has already been aired and it was Terror in paradise. Le Grand Bleu (talk) 09:18, 13 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
You need to bear in mind that the episodes are not sorted according to their air dates but to their production numbers. So there are no errors as far as the order is concerned. FonEengIneeR7 talk 17:54, 13 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Episode List

The dates for Season 14 should be 2014 TBA to 2015 TBA. Would have corrected but the page is locked out — Preceding unsigned comment added by Reimull (talk • contribs) 12:52, 21 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It's correct mate Qantasplanes (talk) 05:52, 22 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Season 5

YSSYguy, you spelt one word wrong in the phantom strike summary. It should be 'rainforest'. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.29.186.145 (talk) 16:26, 5 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Huh? There is not a single rainforest in France... FonEengIneeR7 talk 16:39, 5 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I meant in the Phantom Strike description. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.29.186.145 (talk) 17:07, 5 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Ups, my bad.. sorry. It should indeed read 'rainforest'. I will correct it. FonEengIneeR7 talk 19:15, 5 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

And FonEengIneeR7, the Air India 182 summary is missing the word 'air' in it. Can you put it back on? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.29.186.145 (talk) 20:32, 5 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Season 14, episode 3

This is interesting, possible that Varig Flight 254 is also on the upcoming episodes of Season 14 according to IMDB... ("Mayday" Varig: Flight 254 ). British Midland Flight 92 and Air France 4590 (All done by SFD) are also out there... Qantasplanes (talk) 09:09, 6 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

On IMDB, it's also possible that Fedex Express Flight 80 is on the upcoming episodes of season 14. Copa Airlines Flight 201 is also confirmed by PPRuNe. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.27.40.85 (talk) 16:48, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

According to WP:RS/IMDB "IMDb content is user-submitted and often subject to incorrect speculation and rumor. The use of the IMDb on Wikipedia for referencing is considered unacceptable and strongly discouraged." So do not enter Season 14 episodes based on Imdb....William 22:31, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
As well as Lauda 004 TheAirplaneGuy (talk) 08:59, 25 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

And the 2008 Mexico city plane crash. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.31.254.138 (talk) 16:21, 4 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

And so is the 1999 JFK jr crash.

Season 13 descriptions

I'm not overly happy with what I have written about the Air Moorea Twotter accident. Although the info is in accordance with the investigation report, my concern is that someone unfamiliar with aircraft won't be able to understand it. Also, in the description for the Staines crash, I linked the term "droops" to Variable camber wing; again I'm not happy, but it's the best fit I could find in the existing WP articles concerning wing leading edges - at least its mentioned there, but only briefly. YSSYguy (talk) 10:21, 6 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Somewhat surprisingly, I think they are fine... Qantasplanes (talk) 10:25, 6 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The WL was bothering me, so I created Droop (aircraft) to deal with that issue; and I had another go at the Twotter description. YSSYguy (talk) 23:19, 6 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Stop it

Once you make a talk page comment, leave it alone. I'm really growing tired of the constant nitpick edits here and posts coming and going. The last straw was seeing my own comment removed. That is NOT ALLOWED AT ALL....William 17:49, 9 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

SORRY, WILLIAM!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.27.40.85 (talk) 19:04, 9 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You also got to stop saying 'unreferenced' everytime you revert an edit. I hate that word. Say 'unsourced' or something. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.27.16.25 (talk) 11:50, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Mr. Immature! JustPlaneEditing (talk) 10:45, 12 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

STOP SAYING UNREFERENCED!

Speculated Season 14 Episode List

This speculative listing comes from a youtube page run by someone using the identifier "Air Crash Investigations", they don't give a source but has anyone been able to find a more firm one, especially as Air New Zealand Flight 901 is not on the list?

Air Crash Investigation: Season 14 (Episodes)

Graham1973 (talk) 09:06, 29 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The person who posted this at Youtube says his sources for it included Linkedin, Wikipedia, Imdb. Wikipedia fails per WP:Circular that says you can't use WP as a source. Linkedin and Imdb fail WP:RS. I cited up above the exact WP page that says Imdb can't be used as a reference.
Also note I've twice recently, here[4] and here[5], deleted attempts to be up unsourced season 14 episodes. This page has a long history[6] of people trying to put up their wishlists up here. We have had two cases of people making up crashes. Check this edit[7]] or this AFD[8]. The faux episode count is approximately 30.
Without a WP:RS that Youtube wish list will not be allowed up on the article....William 17:24, 29 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough, but that is why I posted it to the talk page rather then the main page, as it is only the Varig incident can be considered as confirmed as part of the season since we have a press release from the company hired to shoot the 'location footage' confirming it. I suppose we will have to wait until the end of July when filming finishes. Graham1973 (talk) 02:11, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I just deleted a list of season 14 episodes once again. Oh they had references, but each link went back to the article on the crash. That obviously violates WP:CIRCULAR and no link to any other source was given. So they were removed again. It did look like that You tube list....William 21:57, 15 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Ciniflix are now listing the 14th Season on their Mayday frontpage.Graham1973 (talk) 02:34, 16 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Been trying various searches to see if Ciniflix has posted a list of what is covered this season, so far no luck.Graham1973 (talk) 10:02, 31 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Still have not located a concrete listing of Season 14 episodes. The youtube video giving a speculated list has been updated so that it now says were the poster got them, there is also a lot of speculation as to why there is no concrete list from Ciniflix yet.Graham1973 (talk) 03:12, 15 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Found a site called OVGuide which has on it a listing similar to the one in my original post OVGuide - Air Crash Investigations Season 14, but only has nine episodes and I have no idea if this is an "anyone can edit" setup.Graham1973 (talk) 15:07, 15 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Probably is, ep 10 now up TheAirplaneGuy (talk) 06:02, 19 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

IMDB has now listed MH370 as episode 11 TheAirplaneGuy (talk) 09:09, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Definitely bogus, there is no final investigation report to work from for that incident, though they did do that with the Air Transat incident. Anyone had luck in finding a more authoritative listing.Graham1973 (talk) 14:18, 6 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Nope not yet. TheAirplaneGuy (talk) 15:00, 6 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
There was a plane crash in Cuba a few years ago and less than a week later some editor had this article saying there would be an episode on that crash. What's the saying- History always repeats itself?...William 23:57, 6 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Looking at the current release list for 14 it would seem that whoever was behind that youtube channel either guessed right or had inside sources. Interesting that episode 9 is 'in the air' so to speak. I wonder if that is going to turn out to be the Air New Zealand Flight 901 episode that disappeared from last season.Graham1973 (talk) 11:23, 29 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I doubt ANZ 901 will be featured but the uploader seems to constantly update the list TheAirplaneGuy (talk) 11:30, 29 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Problems with an IP user

There is an IP user coming in on 174.21.108.225 and 97.126.81.40 who keeps trying to add the following block of text to the page:

' -- also note: The season six episodes airdates listed here are before the season 5 airdates, this absolutely precludes these episodes being in production order. they are actually listed in the order they appear on the DVDs. Same thing for season 8 and season 7 airdates.

It has been repeatedly reverted by several editors. I would like to suggest that the page be placed on protection.

I know some of the new episodes for Season 14

Hello everyone it's your best ban user RK ;) but I do have Info for you, many mouths back I E-mailed Cineflix for suggestions for further episodes for Air Crash Investigation. In which and e-mail send me back that several of the suggestions will be shown in Season 14 but because this was an e-mail and not an official confirmation on say a website that can't use it on here as an reference. So should I just leave it for anything official to be released or can I add it onto the article without references? I know I kind of dick about with you guys but Air Crash Investigation is my favorite show and I watch it every day. This time not making fun and been debating whether I should do this asking you guy cuz well not well liked am I guy's but for once I'd like to help and you can ban me after if you like :) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.145.38.247 (talk) 11:37, 19 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Season 3 Episode Order

I believe there may be a mistake in the order of the last few episodes in Season 3. According to the DVD release and on iTunes the episode order is as follows:

9. Kid in the Cockpit

10. Head-On Collision

11. Collision Course

12. Runway Train

Every other episode in the list is exactly as it is shown in the DVDs/iTunes expect for those episodes above. Does anyone know why the episodes were listed differently in the article and would I be correct in assuming that the order listed in iTunes is the correct order?

Request to edit the type of aircraft for Avianca 203 as it says McDonnell Douglas MD-11F even though the aircraft involved in the bombing was a Boeing 727-100.

Another request to add the names for Fedex 80 and Avianca 203.

Fedex 80 and Avianca 203's Swedish translations are "Death at Narita" and "Sideswiped".

Death in the arctic aircraft

It recently got put on the wiki page that the aircraft type in S14E10 is a Boeing 777-200ER. If it is true that that episode is First air 6560, than its wrong. Also, no 777's have crashed in the arctic region. 111.69.108.130 (talk) 18:35, 12 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
