Wrong Flight Number?[edit]

It seems that when this article was created in 2012, the Aviation Safety Network used the wrong flight number. The Wayback Machine shows that ASN changed the flight number from 9646 to 9046 sometime between October 23, 2017[1] and June 12, 2018.[2]

Sure enough, searching "Cubana Flight 9046" brings up some news articles from the time referring to the flight as 9046.[3][4] You can find more in newspapers.[5][6][7]

Can anyone help figure out if this article's title should be changed, or could this be the result of erroneous early reporting? LearyTheSquid (talk) 22:04, 17 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Bad Revert[edit]

@Aviationwikiflight. You made a bad revert. The "sister aircraft" isn't necessarily better to be shown. The image you replaced mine with has a worse quality and is farther away, unlike mine. Besides, they look the same and don't show any difference. The only difference shown is the quality and how farther and closer each looks. Hacked (Talk|Contribs) 00:23, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
