Renaming

This article was renamed to conform it to project naming guidelines for air crashes without flight numbers

Yes interesting thought, the official report has British Airways Sikorksy S-61.. but it was operated by British Airways Helicopters so you are correct we should really rename. MilborneOne (talk) 18:48, 20 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm unclear what this sentence means: "Some of the passengers found inside still had their seatbelts on, indicating the lack of fore-warning of the crash." Surely they'd have their seat-belts on, with a crash imminent; more likely this is an indicator of how quickly the aircraft filled with water. I propose to change the sense, unless I'm getting this wrong somehow. Scoop100 (talk) 17:00, 20 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
