CNN and NYTimes seem to now be reporting it as 47 passengers and crew (rather than 48). Could someone look into this and correct it if appropriate? Thanks. Dragons flight ( talk) 08:13, 8 December 2016 (UTC)
I think the article should have the name of a redirect, i.e., ″ Pakistan International Airlines Flight 661″. The current name definitely does not reflect its content. Actually, PIA takes the reader to a disambiguation page. Finally, ″PIA″ is just an acronym for the airline's actual name and article.-- Jetstreamer Talk 23:23, 7 December 2016 (UTC)

The sharp and steep dive as depicted in Flightwatch graph clearly shows that aircraft was having no lift which means no forward thrust instead negative thrust.
FDR readouts will produce exact cause 2605:6000:151B:F1:C153:2BA5:8E86:B5 ( talk) 23:29, 10 December 2016 (UTC) [1]

The Times (subscription required) is reporting that there was a defect on one of the engines and that engineers had not cleared the aircraft to fly. I don't have a full subscription to The Times so am unable to fully verify the story. Mjroots ( talk) 11:03, 8 December 2016 (UTC)

In the section "Crash", the verb "broadcast" is incorrectly conjugated. The rest of the sentence and section is the past tense, and broadcast should accordingly be in the "broadcasted" – unless the intention is to say the mosques are continuously broadcasting still.

The chairman of Pakistan International Airlines has resigned and sources in the web have clashing reports for the reason. Do you think the resignation needs a mention here? Vignyana ( talk) 14:41, 13 December 2016 (UTC)
I made the edit where I omitted the references in the infobox as they are already mentioned in the article. It doesn't need to be cited twice if it is already in the article text with a citation. It makes the infobox look lackluster and defeats the point of an infobox. Why was my edit undone? I don't want to revert anything without making sure. Tntad ( talk) 21:32, 13 December 2016 (UTC)
