[edit] Airline codes?

Any information about BEA's IATA & ICAO airline codes? They would be a nice addition to this article. Mstuomel 00:46, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Think it was BE for IATA (this was also their ICAO code, the ICAO didn't go 3 letters until the 1987).

[edit] Incidents

How can a BEA accident have happened in 1976 when they seized to exist in 74? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 81.7.18.131 (talk) 03:04, 16 February 2007 (UTC).

That's what I say. I'm flagging the section. -71.51.51.120 21:47, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
Correct aircraft was operated by British Airways - paragraph removed. MilborneOne 23:01, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

It should not be the main focus of an encyclopedic article about an airline, to list all its fatal incidents. There are specialised websites of higher quality for that. Better put some beef on the history, network, fleet, innovations, logos, and summarise the incidents.

To answer the unsigned comment, the inclusion of accidents and incidents is in accordance with the guidelines in Wikipedia:WikiProject Airlines. MilborneOne 21:24, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The Beatles' miscellanea

Check The Beatles' miscellanea to see if there is anything in it you can use. A lot of 'miscellanea' needs to be trimmed (as linked articles are improved) so please feel free to use anything before certain sections get zapped into the ether... ThE bEaTLeS aka andreasegde 16:30, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
