I'm just wondering, but did I miss any airlines that used to fly to PWM? If so, could you tell me which ones I missed? Should we also add what destinations these carriers went to from PWM? Help would be appriciated, thank you.

[edit] Aircraft?

I put the Aircraft going in and out of PWM several months ago and it was deleted because "Aircraft schedeules change so much that it is tough to keep track" Why is it put up again? Is anyone willing to discuss this with me?

I just added a few additions to the list of aircraft, but I found the list there when I came. It appears to be back up though.
On a semi-related note, I have just completed an article on Wiggins Airways, which is currently listed as flying Shorts 360s, yet I don't see any in their fleet. Could someone verify that information, otherwise I will remove the 360 from the list. --KPWM 22:59, 6 March 2006 (UTC)


I have just removed the Shorts360 from the aircrafts list. --KPWM_Spotter 23:07, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Aircraft - Take 2

...So, what is the official position of WikiProject Airports on the aircraft listings anyways? It seems to keep getting deleted, but I see no reason why... --KPWM_Spotter 18:58, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] B767-200

I've always been hesitant about the quote involving Delta's 767-200. Personally, I was not alive at the time when that plane would have been at PWM. For now, I have removed the quote (as per a consensus at airliners.net, and no better information). If anyone could provide proof of this aircraft in Portland, please add the quotation, and replace the reference. --KPWM_Spotter 03:15, 14 September 2006 (UTC)


According to Adam T. McLemore, (airliners.net user PWM2TXLhopper), they existed at the jetport. I will try and find that archived civil aviation discussion containing it. --Bkissin 02:09, 15 September 2006 (UTC)


Check these links:

Those will clearly explain that 767-200s were flown by Delta into PWM.

Well, as an aviation entusiast, I guess I'll take A.Net as a valid source, but I feel that as a wikipedian, I should look for a further source to add that to an article. I'll leave it be for now, but it would be great to see a timetable or other oficial print that shows this.--KPWM_Spotter 18:36, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] US Airways by Trans States Airlines?

It seems that US Airways can't make up its mind about Trans States, or our PIT non-stop this summer. Originally scheduled were two daily ERJs to PIT from both PWM and MHT. Now, the flights have dissapeared, and Trans States doesn't look to be doing any business as a US connection partner. As of now, I've removed the airline altogether from PWM's listing, although, I hope to see it back sometime soon with the PIT flights.... --KPWM_Spotter 12:45, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] AirTran Service: It's Seasonal!!

Although I know that AirTran probably will not pull out of Portland this winter, they are leaving the option open for themselves. Their website quite clearly states that the service is Seasonal. Until that reads otherwise, I will continue to revert the edits that say it is year round. If AirTran says the route is seasonal, the route will be marked as seasonal, so please, stop trying to say otherwise!!! Anyone that doubts me, please see the footnote on their own routemap at http://www.airtran.com/route-map/city_information.aspx Thanks. --KPWM_Spotter 19:48, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Good Information, but I don't know where to put it!

So, from airliners.net, I found this website called [1].

On it, I found which airlines serviced PWM (and what aircraft they used) in 1979, 1983, and 1989.

I thought it was very good information, but I don't know where to put it!

Can you guys help?

P.S. Do you think the article is Feature-worthy? If not, what would it take to make it that way?
