Crew

[edit]

I think that listing the crew individually is perhaps too much information here. Most other air crash/incident articles do not contain a separate section for the crew; it is usually "xxx passengers and a crew of 5 were aboard the flight." (Unless there was a specific crew member cited by accident investigators for some reason.) Chidino (talk) 00:43, 2 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Incident

[edit]

(First, thank you for covering this tragedy, which I was unaware of.)

If I might make a suggestion, it would be to remove the course headings (since I don't know the initial course, I have no reference for the subsequent changes) and it seems to bog down a story that tends to be gripping just in its facts. I'm just thinking it would flow a lot better if you simply told the story (accurately, as you have) and described the struggle to get the aircraft to the airport rather than the course changes. Hope this helps. Chidino (talk) 00:55, 2 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I see your point (air crashes with fire in cargo holds to blame) but what ties them together isn't clear to most users. ("Did ValuJet fly the Il-18?" No.) As a fellow aviation junkie, I know why you linked those particular incidents, but their relationship to Aeroflot 558 isn't immediately apparent. Chidino (talk) 01:08, 2 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
