Ethiopian Airlines Flight 409
WP:NOTFORUM from previously blocked IP, now suggesting "suicide by pilot" theory

Should we mention this accident in connection with Sriwijaya Air Flight 182? 87.116.78.205 (talk) 09:57, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
87.116.78.205 - you've already been warned about civility. Stick to the issue at hand and not who holds a differing opinion to yourself. Otherwise I might have to get this key ![]() As for Ethiopian Airlines Flight 409, if it can be shown that there are similar causes between the two accidents, then it may be appropriate to add a link. At the moment, there is no evidence that there are similar causes. We just need to be patient and wait for information to become available. Mjroots (talk) 19:55, 15 January 2021 (UTC)

FDR, CVR and ULBs
Just to be clear. Both the Flight Data Recorder and the Cockpit Voice Recorder have a Underwater locator beacon bolted onto them.
The section for 12 January has this:
"While it was announced on 10 January 2021 that the position of both flight recorders had been located,[75] the Commander of the Indonesian National Armed Forces said on 12 January 2021 that two underwater locator beacons had been found but the cockpit voice recorder needs to be found without the assistance from underwater guidance signals.[94] The beacons on both flight recorders were dislodged in the impact.[95]"
The latest entry for 15 January is this:
"The casing of the cockpit voice recorder was recovered, along with its beacon, but the memory module inside was missing.[112]"
Perhaps it should say this:
"The casing of the cockpit voice recorder was recovered, but the memory module inside was missing.[112] The beacon had been recovered previously."
Thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 12:01, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Martinevans123: - the source given does not say that the CVR ULB had been recovered previously. You'll need to find a source to verify that claim. Mjroots (talk) 19:40, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
- Someone needs to find a source to verify the claim, currently in the article, that "two underwater locator beacons had been found"? Not sure it's me. Martinevans123 (talk) 20:18, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
- So, the existing source is this one, in Indonesian. Doing a manual Google translation I see it says this:
"However, CVR searches should be performed without guidance from underwater locator beacons or guidance signals to locate black boxes. This is because the two underwater locator beacons have been found along with the FDR."
- I've gone ahead and removed the phrase " along with its beacon" from the third paragraph of the 15 January section. Martinevans123 (talk) 11:06, 17 January 2021 (UTC)
- So, the existing source is this one, in Indonesian. Doing a manual Google translation I see it says this:
perhaps the Initialisms of FDR and CVR should be indicated for people who don't see the link between Cockpit Voice Recorder and CVR? 86.132.233.112 (talk) 14:57, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
- Good idea:
Done. - Ahunt (talk) 15:10, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
Assessment
Currently, the Aviation accidents WikiProject banner rates it Start-class, whilst the others rate it B. What is the article's rating currently?
- B-Class requirements
- Referencing all statements that absolutely requires citations to reliable sources.
- Organized tidily using section headings.
- Reasonably well written; does not have major grammatical errors.
- Contains illustration where appropriate.
- Is broadly understandable; technical terms are clarified.
- C-Class requirements
- Has reliable sources, but does not reference all statements that require one.
- Organized tidily using section headings.
GeraldWL 06:05, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Gerald Waldo Luis: - see my comments in the Polishing section above. I'd give a tick to both of those {{hmmm}}s - plenty of eyes on the article mean that the prose is fine, any grammar errors arising from translation are quickly rectified. Technical terms are unavoidable with an article such as this, and are adequately dealt with by wikilinks, but foreign language references need both the language and trans-title parameters. As I said earlier, it's not quite at B class IMvHO. Mjroots (talk) 09:03, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
FDR data extracted 15 January

Done; JP source is enough. GeraldWL 13:01, 16 January 2021 (UTC)

Search and rescue section
This whole section is way, way too long and contains a lot of irrelevant WP:TRIVIA. It needs cutting down dramatically to the actual relevant information. This can either be done now, or we can waste effort adding mountains more and then cut it all later. If you want to see how much of this minute-by-minute update stuff is retained in an article have a look at Air France Flight 66. - Ahunt (talk) 15:14, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
- Great minds. I've tagged the entire section. I vote for trimming it now but I have bigger fish to fry today. Carguychris (talk) 16:17, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks so much for doing that! I may have some time to work on that later on today. - Ahunt (talk) 16:30, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
- I've been thinking the same, it already fell into WP:TRIVIA when it became "day-to-day" update, so thank you so much for doing that! PaPa PaPaRoony (talk) 11:55, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
Done Feel free to adjust as needed. - Ahunt (talk) 03:12, 19 January 2021 (UTC)
- I'm glad that you did it, but I think it was trimmed too much (several quite crucial information e.g other countries' assistance from Singapore and Korea were also trimmed). I will add a few later. Glad for your work though so thank you! PaPa PaPaRoony (talk) 03:22, 19 January 2021 (UTC)
- I didn't think it was needed, as this is about the crash, not a list of credits, but see if you really think anything needs to be put back in. - Ahunt (talk) 03:33, 19 January 2021 (UTC)
- The practical assistance from Singapore and, particularly, S Korea was not routine. Korea was asked specifically by the Indonesian Government through bilateral structures for major S&R assets; Singapore provided assistance with locating pingers at the point that that was proving difficult.Davidships (talk) 13:22, 19 January 2021 (UTC)
- Well if you think it is notable and not just WP:NOTNEWS the feel free to reinstate it. - Ahunt (talk) 13:25, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

fatalities = 62 | survivors = 0
The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
I know that there has been a lot of IP editors adding this and other editors quickly removing it pending some official announcement, but that announcement does not seem to be forthcoming. We have had many WP:RS media sources already announce "no survivors", though. Given it has been 12 days, we are starting to look a bit silly continuing to remove this as it is unlikely anyone is still "treading water" now. I think we can now safely leave the infobox indicating fatalities = 62 | survivors = 0 without being accused of WP:OR. - Ahunt (talk) 20:29, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
- WP relies on reliable secondary sources, not primary sources. That some editors are waiting on "official" confirmation of no survivors is tenuous. I have already given very reliable secondary sources that confirm all pax died. To withhold the crash outcome from the infobox is living in lala land. WWGB (talk) 01:04, 21 January 2021 (UTC)
- I agree. Delaying adding this is making Wikipedia look silly and bureaucratic. After yet another IP reverted it demanding a ref (there were already four cited in the article), I added a fifth from the Associated Press, and to to the lede as well. How silly are we looking? That AP article with the headline All 62 People On Indonesian Jet Presumed Dead After Crash was last updated ten days ago. - Ahunt (talk) 01:32, 21 January 2021 (UTC)
- Also agree. It is well known that authorities in that part of the world don't like bad news and delay confirmation of such as long as they can get away with. As I said on the fourth day after the crash, it is impossible that anyone can survive underwater that long. Even more so now. Mjroots (talk) 06:25, 21 January 2021 (UTC)
We should add (presumed) like other accidents like Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, 2016 Indian Air Force An-32 disappearance, Pakistan International Airlines Flight 404 and so on.
Fatalities 62 (presumed)
Survivors 0 (presumed)
I prefer to using missing parameter like
Missing 62 (presumably dead)
If some deaths are confirmed, then
Fatalities 10
Missing 52 (presumably dead)
- Hi, I keep removing the 62 fatalities from the infobox as unsourced. I do it primarily bcs there is no change in the text of the article to elaborate/accompany such infobox edits. They seem to be just a reinterpretation of what has been in the article for some time ("reported that all people on board had been killed"). Presumed is in line with that, and I agree with Phoenix7777 regarding the wording. (BTW Compensation is being paid only to some 40 identified victims now, and there was a fake call for help from one of the island that was investigated in connection with the flight. So even though I am sure there are no survivors, it is unencyclopedic to add that to the article before official confirmation regardless about what you think about that country policies. Especially just based on our own OR about what is impossible, unlikely, etc., as the media do not know either; they, as far as I know, do not comment on the reasons why they think the people are dead. (Are there some unofficial comments from investigators, experts regarding the probability of survival? That could be added to the article.)) --WikiHannibal (talk) 10:17, 21 January 2021 (UTC)
- @WikiHannibal: What is the longest anyone has survived underwater without the benefit of any artificial aid (such as oxygen tanks, breathing apparatus etc). WP:BLUE should be invoked here. All 62 are dead. We have enough sources to say that with confidence. Consensus seems to be against you at this point in time. Mjroots (talk) 11:33, 21 January 2021 (UTC)
- Reuters now confirming that Indonesia has halted search for survivors. Mjroots (talk) 12:29, 21 January 2021 (UTC)
- ...and with that I think we can stop pussyfooting around this issue. WP:RS have been stating "no survivors" for more than ten days, something that was pretty obvious within 24 hours of the crash. Applying logic and trusting reliable sources is not WP:OR. Keeping this fact out of the article for so long reduced Wikipedia's credibility and made us look foolish. We need to take this lesson forward for the next crash where there is an inflight break up and/or high speed water impact. Given the refs now cited and the text now incorporated, I think this thread can be closed out. - Ahunt (talk) 13:46, 21 January 2021 (UTC)

When I say something I'm usually right
The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
https://www.bloombergquint.com/business/faulty-automatic-throttle-eyed-in-indonesia-jet-crash-probe
- https://flightsafety.org/asw-article/turbulence-triggers-roll-upset-stall/ "The thrust levers apparently were not moved symmetrically, or the engines did not accelerate evenly. Low-pressure rotor speed (N1) in the left engine reached about 98 percent, while N1 in the right engine reached about 87 percent. The asymmetric thrust contributed to the initiation of a very high roll rate, with the right bank angle increasing through 57 degrees. The increased thrust produced by the underwing-mounted engines also caused the airplane to pitch 9.5 degrees nose-up.The enhanced ground-proximity warning system (EGPWS) generated a “BANK ANGLE” warning, and the stick shaker activated. The crew reduced thrust and applied full left aileron and rudder. “The bank reached its maximum of 102 degrees to the right, and the minimum speed of 181 kt was reached,” the report said.The airplane stalled and descended rapidly. Nose-up elevator control was being held as the right bank angle decreased through 90 degrees and the pitch attitude reached about 25 degrees nose-down. The airplane rolled through wings-level and into a 35-degree left bank. The crew applied nose-down elevator control and full thrust."
- So (Redacted), what happened with my "speculations"?! The truth is that they refused to release FDR data only because of me. If they do it, the reason for the crash will become clear one hour after that. Emil Enchev 87.126.169.21 (talk) 20:56, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
- Your first ref says:
Nurcahyo Utomo, the lead investigator at Indonesia’s National Transportation Safety Committee, confirmed that a malfunctioning throttle was “one of the factors that we are looking at, but I can’t say at this point that it’s a factor for the crash or there was a problem with it.
At this point there is nothing there but mere speculation. The second ref is from 2011, with nothing to connect it to this event. There is nothing in either ref that we can use in this article right now. When you have some relevant information feel free to post it here. - Ahunt (talk) 21:05, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
- Your first ref says:
- Who exactly has "refused to release FDR data"? And when exactly did that happen? Martinevans123 (talk) 21:15, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
- No one. The idea that it is being unduly withheld is just an unsubstantiated conspiracy theory. In most accident investigations the raw FDR data is not usually released at all and never before it has been analyzed, which can take months, or longer, even in first world countries. Once it is analyzed, usually there will be a text or video summary of what it showed, often as part of the preliminary and/or the final report. Releasing the raw data is not usually done because most people can't make any sense of it and also because it leads to wild conspiracy theories propagated by unqualified people. It is for the same reason that photos of the bodies, etc, are not publicly released. - Ahunt (talk) 21:24, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, the kind of people who claim "when I say something I'm usually right." Martinevans123 (talk) 21:32, 20 January 2021 (UTC) p.s. anyone got any aviation fags??
- So Ahunt, you tald me that I'm imagine when I'm analyzed FDR data in advance before final report of previous air accidents? In this specific case there are doubts that one of the pilots was take off his harness and this is the reason why the engines thrust was not on idle. His tossing body around cockpit prevent ather pilot from actions. And after I told this with my name, the FDR data must be released in full extent because Indonesian plane probably will not fly over EU and England territory anymore if this is not reject as possibility. I don't care what deal are make Indonesian government and Boeing. I'm the man who ruined Boeing, I think is not hard to me to ruin and Indonesian aviation but if they want to try me. 87.126.169.21 (talk) 22:00, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
- Ah, right. You're the man who ruined Boeing and the man who can easily ruin Indonesian aviation. So let's all hope you're not the man to ruin this article. Martinevans123 (talk) 22:05, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
- Just for the record, I never tald you anything. - Ahunt (talk) 23:41, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
- Your last statements makes it so clear that you're not here to build Wikipedia, but to tear it down, amongst your agendas to shatter Boeing and Indonesia. What's next, aviation as a whole? Sounds like you're a really dangerous man, 87. GeraldWL 06:54, 21 January 2021 (UTC)

Flight Data Recorder in water
The previous caption to the FDR photo "The flight data recorder, submerged in water for safety reasons
" was uncited. It was written by a Wikimedia editor here; the stated source for the photo makes no reference it being kept in water. The purpose is to prevent further corrosion and damage from air contact, see this from Reuters and (explaining the same procedure after the Lion Air accident) this, so I prefer something more specific than "safety", which is vague and implies that the FDR could become unsafe in some way. Davidships (talk) 21:02, 23 January 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, Reuters says: "After a crash over the sea, the recorder is placed back in water to prevent damage from contact with air while being transported." No objection to adjusting the caption. It should all be explained at the Flight recorder article. Martinevans123 (talk) 21:10, 23 January 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks. I looked there, but there is not yet any section on recovery protocols.
