Washington/Potomac

What about the airliner bound for Florida that plunged into the Potomac in the 80's in the middle of winter? 76.66.198.171 (talk) 14:19, 16 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Do you mean Air Florida Flight 90? I think it would probably be good to differentiate between attempted ditchings (rare) to crashes in water (somewhat more common). This seems to fall into the latter, no? Joshdboz (talk) 15:35, 16 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Capitalization

Is there any particular reason that this template is {{Commercial Ditchings}} instead of {{Commercial ditchings}} with a lowercase "d"?  LinguistAtLarge • Msg  21:40, 17 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Nope. This is fine with lowercase. Joshdboz (talk) 12:26, 6 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
