Aeroflot Flight 593

Improved to Good Article status by Thanoscar21 (talk). Self-nominated at 22:28, 7 March 2021 (UTC).

  • Thanoscar21, Date, size, refs, all GTG. No QPQ which does not seem required as I didn't find any evidence of DYKs on user's talk (ping User:BlueMoonset - can you double-check this?). I do however think we need a fix in the hook. The child (minor...) was never in 'command of [the] controls. They just touched some button which caused a cascade failure. The hook needs to be rewritten. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:20, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
  • Piotrus, there has only been a single prior nomination, and it wasn't eligible at the time, so it doesn't count as a DYK credit. A quid pro quo nomination is not required for this nomination. BlueMoonset (talk) 06:48, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
  • Piotrus, if you look at the transcript, he child was in command of the controls for quite some time, and the summary of the crash was "Pilot error, untrained minor in command of controls". Thanks, Thanoscar21talk, contribs 12:45, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
