The --131.170.90.6 (talk) 03:15, 23 June 2013 (UTC)passenger and crew numbers mentioned in the article are in conflict with the accident description[1] and the BBC News article. Clarification is needed and/or a reference for the quoted numbers in the article. Panthro (talk) 23:02, 29 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

Egyptian Public

Making a broad statement like the Egyptian public does does no believe an Egyptian pilot kill 142 or was responsible for the death of 142 is not needed unless like EgyptAir 990 there is a significant bilateral diplomatic disruption and even then without polls it is opinion of one person . The Fact the the Egyptian Goverment disagrees is enough considering it speaks for the people. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.67.182.5 (talk) 13:27, 5 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Removed vertigo from info box

edit
Latest comment: 11 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I removed the term "vertigo" from the infobox because the interim accident report notes that pilots frequently use that term (erroneously) when they are talking about spatial disorientation, which is something quite different:

"Type I spatial disorientation:

Unrecognized spatial disorientation. No conscious perception of SD. Distractions are often antecedents to the accident. Crash with no distress or concern expressed. No mayday or other than routine communications. Unusual or inappropriate aircraft attitude, but pilot does not make any appropriate corrective action. Pilot is apparently oblivious to the situation.

Type II recognized:

Conscious manifestation of a problem. Pilots often incorrectly refer to this experience as vertigo. Pilot recognizes conflict between perceived and intended or expected attitude. Can assume that the instruments are operating incorrectly. Might not properly react because of difficulty accepting indicated correct control input or might just be puzzled about the situation. Confusion might persist after recovery and lead to compounding of SD problem." [pg 70 of the interim report]

"Vertigo /ˈvɜː(ɹ)tɨɡoʊ/ (from the Latin vertō "a whirling or spinning movement"[1]) is a subtype of dizziness in which a patient experiences the perception of motion (usually a spinning motion) despite actually being still.[2][3] The symptoms are due to an asymmetric dysfunction of the vestibular system in the inner ear.[3] It is often associated with nausea and vomiting as well as a balance disorder, causing difficulties standing or walking. There are three types of vertigo. The first is known as objective[4][5] and describes when the patient has the sensation that objects in the environment are moving; the second is known as subjective[4][5] and refers to when the patient feels as if he or she is moving, and the third is known as pseudovertigo,[6] an intensive sensation of rotation inside the patient's head. While appearing in textbooks, this classification has little to do with the pathophysiology or treatment of vertigo." [[2]] 71.93.90.163 (talk) 22:06, 5 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

Cited source for airplane history

edit
Latest comment: 7 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I added the citation for the plane history information (the accident report by Egypt) as well as expanded on the information there. The original cited TACA as the airline who owned the plane, but it had been leased to Egyptian Air since 2001, making the sale irrelevant to the history of the plane. Added flight hours and cycles, which is more relevant to the history of the plane.

Possible Rudder Hardover

edit
Latest comment: 1 year ago2 comments2 people in discussion

I watched this crash here (the first 49 minutes)... Link, and it seems that this is a classic case of a rudder hardover. A bad PCU, that controls the rudder, would have been the mechanical problem, jamming the rudder to one side, placing the plane into an uncontrollable bank, and making the it useless even with the autopilot. Here are similar incidents with the 737... Link, and the problem explained at the end of this video... Link. I'm surprised that neither the video or this wikipedia article mentioned it. The evidence is in 3,000 feet of water and still retrievable. Lord Milner (talk) 02:05, 6 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Theres no proof that the PCU failed in mid flight Lucasoliveira653 (talk) 02:56, 22 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
