Although that's an unreliable source, which is why I'm not adding it to the article, that kind of comment on that kind of page often comes from knowledgeable military/NatSec/aviation people and possibly someone who had worked/known in that area. So if anyone has more info and sources on that aspect, that would be great for the article.

== Fatality count (5) is clearly wrong == |
|||
The info box fatality count of "5" Occupants, "5" crew, and "5" fatalities, is clearly false and doesn't match any of the sources except for (in some of the first reports) 5 ''Americans'' killed. Other sources clearly refer to multiple members of UNITA being on the plane (~11?), plus foreign nationals (West Germany and Britain), and also some newspapers reporting on US official statements said there were survivors. Links and citations in the article. People board must have been at least ~15 and maybe 20 or more. I will attempt to fix later the count of people who were onboard and who perished, unless someone else wants to do it first.
