Question on the retired fleet section
Two weeks ago I made a revision removing the mention that Biman operated the DC-10-15 and saw just now that it was reverted; admittedly I did not realize that the information was sourced because it didn't have a specific in-line citation and I didn't notice the citation for the general source on Biman's historical fleet and I apologize for that. However checking that source (AeroTransport Data Bank), their page for the specific frame listed as paet of Biman's fleet notes it as being leased by Biman but notes "acquisition canceled" and "transaction canceled", so between that and other fleet lists not mentioning Biman ever having the -15 in their fleet it isn't clear it ever operated for them. Would this warrant removing it from the list of their past aircraft types operated or does the fact that the type is listed in at least one fleet list and the airline presumably at least intended to acquire it warrant it staying?

First year passenger number
"In the first year of operation, Biman operated 1,079 flights carrying just over 380,000 passengers."
That's 352 passengers per flight, way beyond the capacity of F27s, DC-6s, or 707s. Even if they meant 1,079 round trips, it's still far too high. Mirza Ahmed (talk) 06:14, 25 February 2025 (UTC)
