Delete "will tranfer"

Do we really need every single "will transfer" notice in this list? I mean, can't we just list the people that are going to be transferred as being assigned to that launch (just move the schedule back a launch)? It makes more sense that way and will cut a lot of redundancy and wasted space. Yaki-gaijin (talk) 03:50, 18 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Interesting. I think these words should be removed, but at the same time, I am not very sure what words could replace it better at the moment.

Also, I think the list has to be verified at some point -- the list looks a bit strange with the "Flight up" and "Flight down" being the same spacecraft, but that may just be me. (Never mind that, I didn't notice the docking period of the spacecraft; but still, it can be useful to insert such information.) If it is correct, I think it may require some clarifications. 123.194.150.216 (talk) 14:17, 9 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

Info that may be useful to editors

Rumor has it that under the current plan the final crew is planned to be Expedition 65, which would end in November 2020. But of course the ISS may be extended to past that date.--Craigboy (talk) 16:34, 22 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

Launch Date vs. Arrival Date

edit

Shouldn't we list the Arrival Date rather than the Launch Date? Or both?

The beginning of an Expedition should be when a person arrives at the ISS. For example, the recent launch of a Dragon spacecraft was under control of SpaceX up until the time the spacecraft docked with the ISS. The two astronauts entry into the ISS on the day after launch should be the beginning of their participation with the current Expedition. Also, the ending should be when they leave the ISS, not the landing date. Shouldn't it?
