Sources and methods

The news feed for squawkseven is compiled from a selection of published feeds and indexes belonging to established news publications covering commercial aviation. These sources focus specifically on the system that keeps aviation running, including air traffic control, regulation, safety oversight, and industry economics. Every article relevant to our defined sections is identified through this monitored set of inputs.

Each selected story is processed with automated assistance to produce a concise summary. This summary is always written in plain prose and is then manually checked for clarity and factual accuracy. The original publication is clearly credited as the source of the information, and a direct link to the full article is always provided. When a specific fact or claim is reported by only a single publication, this is noted within the summary text.

The site's reference pages, such as those for investigations, regulators, or specific programmes, are built differently. They are constructed from stable, verified facts that persist over time, often presented within a structured facts table. Each reference page includes a credited photograph from a relevant and licenced source. These pages are intended as factual starting points and are not live news reports.

Coverage pages for the main sections, such as Safety or Economics, are refreshed continually as new, relevant stories are summarised from the source publications. The static reference pages are reviewed and updated on a scheduled, periodic basis to incorporate any new stable information or concluded developments. This approach ensures squawkseven provides both timely summaries and durable reference material for audience worldwide.
