[edit] Customer codes (Copied from Customer Codes)
This section is really messy. I think we should clean it up, move it to the end, or move it to a subpage. What does everyone think? —Joseph/N328KF (Talk) 16:25, July 20, 2005 (UTC)
- Ive added a lot more of the customer codes to the list.
- They need proparly formatting and linking out.
- Will work my way through them
- If you can help, please do

- Cheers to N328KF for making a sub article (stub?) of customer codes

[edit] Text Formatting
Can someone tell me why some are in italics, and others aren't and other similar ideas?
Cheers

- Presumably this comment is from Reedy Boy. Italics indicate a deceased airline. —Joseph/N328KF (Talk) 14:38, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
Yeah sorry, i must haven't put enough tidles.
Ok, thanks for telling me that

[edit] order of codes and source?
As people have noted above this article does need tidying up which I'll try and get around to but before I do I thought I'd consult on what order you think it should be - or enlighten me if there's a precedent I should follow? It appears that there are numerical (01), alphabetical (AB), alpha-numeric (A1) and numeric-alpha (1A) and I'm just not sure what order these should go in. I'll break them up into sub-headers to make it simpler too I think. My first instinct is to do: 00, 01, 02... 98, 99, 0A, 0B, 0C, 0D.... 1A, 1B, 1C... A1, A2... AA, AB, AC...
Also, where is all this info coming from? Do Boeing have a list that sets a precedent?

- The first sequence used was 00 to 99 then 0A to 9Z, then the latest AA to ZZ I would agree with Iancaddy that they should be presented in that order. MilborneOne 19:48, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
- Hi, I just want to know how the First/Second/Third Sequences workd. They seem out-of-the-place and I found two "Third Sequences" somewhere. Suggest making a table. --Starcity ai 20:52, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

- I changed the order into the different sequences as used by Boeing (just to make it clear that they were not used in an alphabetic order) - didnt have time to change from the original format agree needs a table MilborneOne 21:56, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
I feel the "order" should be referred to at the beginning of the article and that the list of codes is returned to its previous state. Ie: alphabetical/numerical. There is much data that is out of place in the article. It's much harder to utilise then in the past. skyskraper 12:52, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
- re-organised into a table to make it easier to read and added a note about different sequences, still not strictly in alpha order yet need more time - or another willing helper ! MilborneOne 14:52, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Redundant article?
There's list of Boeing customers that already has most of the information in this article.

- I would suggest that the other article is redundant as it is has older data than this page, if it is really a list of customers it should have an alpha list of customer names not a list of codes !! It was only created in July 06 perhaps by somebody who had not seen this article MilborneOne 11:21, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Successor Airlines
There have been edits to customer name on the list to include subsequent airline names - in a lot a cases the code has NOT been used by the successor airline (most of the time have their own codes) so I would suggest should not be included. MilborneOne 20:15, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
