Otto Lucas

 * ... that hat designer Otto Lucas died when the plane he was on crashed, killing all 63 people onboard?
 * Reviewed: not a self-nom
 * Comment: better hook ideas welcome

 * Maybe reword? I thought "his plane" meant he owned it or was flying it... though perhaps that's just me. 97198 (talk) 05:14, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I had the same thought when drafting the hook, seeking brevity. I've reworded it. Edwardx (talk) 09:44, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Created on 22 September, long enough, well referenced and neutral. Hook is interesting and supported by an inline citation. No close paraphrasing found. Note that I've removed the DYKmake credits for the Mabalu and Gareth E Kegg, as the sum of their contributions to the article appears to be the addition of categories and an image. 97198 (talk) 13:36, 24 October 2014 (UTC)
