[edit] New Picture On the Article

The Airport has a new runway and that picture currently in use is about 4 years old, we need a new picture that shows the new runway as well. I have found one, but I do not know how to put it on an Article. If someone can help me that would be great. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Moairguard (talkcontribs) 22:21, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Also, the FAA diagram is not usable at all. I even downloaded the file and opened it in Irfanview and couldn't read any of it no matter what I did. Considering the file is useless, other than seeing the basic runway/taxiway layout, it certainly is large. Traumatic (talk) 23:52, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Advertisement / Disoganised topics

There appears to be a large amount of items in this article that are written in language promoting advertisement. Large amounts of incorrect grammer have also been found all over the article. I will attempt to correct some of these things. Please if anyone can also assist in creating sub-categories and helping to put everything together in a more logical order would be much appreciated!

  • Kcuello, you might wish to cite one or more specific examples of languange in this article that promote advertisment. The primary contributor to this article, Sox23, would probably appreciate it if you provide more information. Does the language you question appear in Airline_lounges, Public_transportation, Expansion_-_construction, Aircraft_production, Popular_culture, or elsewhere? Likewise, would you please cite a specific instance of incorrect grammer. Providing this information, will help others make the corrections that you suggest.--Dan Dassow (talk) 23:37, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:STL.gif

Image:STL.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 09:24, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Daily Non-Stop Flights from Major Cities to St. Louis

There is a table of number of flights between cities and St. Louis at http://www.stlcommercemagazine.com/archives/january2007/transportation.html This information might be worth including in the Lambert-St._Louis_International_Airport article. Dan Dassow 21:29, 10 October 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Former airlines

If a section on former airlines is appropriate, then the section is woefully incomplete.

Although Trans World Airlines was the major tenant for Lambert Saint Louis Airport, is TWA truly a former airline serving Lambert Saint Louis Airport? American Airlines acquired Trans World Airlines. Many of the former TWA aircraft still are in American’s fleet. Likewise, there have been other airlines that disappeared due to merger. TWA acquired Ozark Airlines. Likewise, North Central Airlines and Southern Airways merged to form Republic Airlines (1979-1986). Northwest Airlines later acquired Republic.Dan Dassow 10:13, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
