Overall: @Ktin: Nice work on this article. I am fairly sure the 2004 ultra long haul flight refers to Singapore Airlines Flights 21 and 22, which started in 2004 and went from Singapore to Newark (near NYC). This can optionally be linked in the article, but if you want to avoid synthesis that's fine too. Epicgenius (talk) 16:20, 19 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Epicgenius: thanks for the review and the kind words. Yes, you are right about the flight numbers. I added a link to the article. In the meantime, were you thinking we link them in the hook too? Cheers. Ktin (talk) 16:40, 19 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Ktin: No problem, we could do that. It's optional - after all, Singh is still the subject of the hook - but might be interesting. Epicgenius (talk) 16:59, 19 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Epicgenius: done. Thanks. Updated the above hook. Cheers. Ktin (talk) 17:13, 19 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
