In reference to an edit by User:202.67.154.189 there are General Aviation flights which operate into and out of Bradley International Airport. The reason they are not listed on the airport's website is both of these terminals are privately owned/operated and as a result they are not open to the public. They are only open to private and charter aircraft, their crew and passengers. Misterrick 21:52, 19 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

So why are you are you including the general aviation in this article if it is not open to the public? 198.31.188.82 21:08, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

It is part of this article because private and charter aircrafts don't use the public A or B terminals and the reason these General Aviation terminals are not open to the public is because unlike Terminals A and B there are no airlines that operate out of these terminals, they are strictly for incoming and outgoing private and charter aircraft and unless you are departing from or meeting someone at the GAT you cannot just go inside and walk around, If you did and without a legitimate reason for being there you are basically told to leave.

The article has an unattributed statement about NWA offering a flight to Amsterdam:

In the next year or so, Northwest Airlines will begin the international flight to Amsterdam (AMS). These flights will be operated with Northwest's Boeing 757-200 aircraft. These aircraft will be retrofitted with winglets. The specifics of the flights are not yet known.

At this point, I believe this to be speculation. There is no source for it, and a search on NWA's website and news.google.com did not find any reference.

NWA's website has the announcement and it is fouind on the main page of the website announcing new service from Detroit to Dusseldorf and Belgium and Hartford to Amsterdam. Bucs2004 05:25, 12 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I think NWA started and then discontinued the flight to Amsterdam, because it is not listed under destinations in the article, however, it is possible that the destinations list is out of date. 71.193.162.77 (talk) 03:21, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

NWA did have a flight from BDL to Amsterdam. However, this was cancelled. http://money.cnn.com/news/newsfeeds/articles/prnewswire/200610111335PR_NEWS_USPR_____CGW041.htm

The map under Airlines and destinations is out of date. Should somebody put it up for speedy deletion? 71.193.162.77 (talk) 21:32, 14 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This article contains a trivia section listing airlines and aircraft types which a spotter may see landing at BDL. I would submit that such a list is not necessary and unimportant, since it would always be redundant with any similar list from any other mid-size airport in the US. In any case such a list will always be incomplete, as spotters cannot note every type that lands. The capper is the general discouragement of trivia sections anyway. I am removing. --Bridgecross 16:54, 1 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
In any case such information is not independently verifiable by Wikipedia standards. --Bridgecross 16:56, 1 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Updated information regarding the Airbus A380 Visit. Pratt and Whitney is not the only player in the development of the engine. Hamilton Sundstrand also has designed allot of the subsystems of the Airbus A380. Hamilton Sundstrand is also located right across form the main passanger terminal. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.156.42.129 (talk) 18:00, 13 November 2007 (UTC) This should be clarifed and state United Technologies divisions.[reply]

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.

This airport is listed as one of the List of Superfund sites, but there is no mention within the article of even a potential contamination at the site. Why is it included in the list? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.190.163.70 (talk) 17:02, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
