The site of the crash in the info box is incorrect. The coordinates are spitting out a position that is 3/4 of a mile to the South. I tried to correct it yesterday but it was reverted.

Ah. That's because I didn't include seconds, on the pattern of Gol Transportes Aéreos Flight 1907. Your (correct) links are still at the bottom; I moved them because they took up a lot of infobox real estate. Your point is well taken, though, because this is an urban area. I'll change the first reference to latitude and longitude accordingly.-- The_socialist ^talk? 16:27, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. I knew it was taking up a bit much, didn't know how to shrink it.

[edit] Naming the victims

It's really bad form for us to not name all 4 in the lead (especially when it's supported by the citation) so I have added this information. 68.146.47.196 23:18, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Additional details need sources

I have added a paragraph regarding the fact one of the helicopters (but apparently not the other) was broadcasting live when the collision happened. I also mentioned the AP photograph that has widely circulated. Both these need links so if anyone can add them, please do. I understand YouTube links are not allowed, so another link will need to be included. The reporter can be heard screaming on the YouTube clip after the collision, but I chose to use more neutral wording. 68.146.47.196 14:56, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
