Most injured, whether or not anyone died

Injuries are the total the record shows: a Wikipedia record's infobox total, otherwise the serious and minor injuries in the NTSB record. People hurt on the ground are counted too, so a row can show hundreds injured although no one on board survived: all 106 injured at the Pentagon on 11 September 2001 were in the building.
