Suggested Use of Sources[edit]

The current article's cites multiple sources, some of which are just plain wrong. Since the vast majority of all general aviation, commercial aviation, and airline transport operations occur either within or into and out of the United States of America, I strongly suggest this entry be rewritten by a CFI/I (Certified Flight Instructor - Instrument) using both FAA-H-8083-25A, "Pilot's Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge" and FAA-H-8083-15B, "Instrument Flying Handbook," and FAA-H-8083-16A, "Instrument Procedures Handbook." All three are published by the Federal Aviation Administration, a division of the U.S. Department of Transportation. Therein you will find the correct terms. There's absolutely no need to reproduce the 840 pages contained in those documents. They will, however, ensure this article is accurate.Clepsydrae (talk) 18:55, 2 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please keep in mind that Wikipedia is a global encyclopedia and we work to present a world view on subjects and avoid a US-centric position. - Ahunt (talk) 21:44, 2 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

First picture composite?[edit]

Is it possible to double check the source of the first picture? The distance between those four aircraft seems unsafely small, suggesting that it is a composite like the picture below it.

There is no indication of that, but perhaps it would be best to drop a not to the person who took the photo. He is a regular contributor of aviation photos here and I am sure he can explain the photo. - Ahunt (talk) 01:32, 24 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

– Currently, Final approach is a dab page, while the aviation use has parenthetical disambiguation. However, with the exception of the aviation article, all the articles linked from the dab page are on subjects named "Final Approach", with a capital A - the aviation usage is the only one with a lower-case a. Per WP:DIFFCAPS, I believe that the capitalization is sufficient to disambiguate the aviation use, and therefore should be used per WP:CONCISE. This will involve moving the dab page - I suggest the capitalized form as the most appropriate target. Tevildo (talk) 16:49, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
