1974 Dan-Air Luton incident

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Fails to meet the criteria for notability at WP:AIRCRASH, as well as general notability. The subject matter is also covered adequately at London Luton Airport to whichthe article title could be re-directed Petebutt (talk) 16:10, 23 December 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete (no redirect)- if article does not meet notability, and is already covered in Luton airport article, then redirect is probably also unnecessary. GraemeLeggett (talk) 17:03, 23 December 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete doesnt appear to be particularly notable just a bad day at the office. MilborneOne (talk) 19:13, 23 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - fails WP:AIRCRASH and WP:PERSISTENCE, no need for a merge or redirect. - The Bushranger One ping only 21:53, 23 December 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete - As the article and the refs make clear this was a minor incident that resulted no deaths, no injuries and just some damage to gear doors (non-structural), a tailskid (which is designed to be ablative) and a couple of belly panel skins, plus a ground ILS antennae. All damage was quickly repaired and both the aircraft and the airport back in service quickly. The crew were not even aware that they hit anything, so minor was the impact. If this were about a surface accident it would be similar to an article on a car hitting a traffic light post and taking it out of commission, where both the car and the traffic light were back in service in short order. Even though there are some refs the incident fails WP:AIRCRASH and is not sufficiently notable for its own article. This incident bears mentioning in the airport article, where it is currently mentioned, the article therefore is redundant and should be deleted. - Ahunt (talk) 22:54, 23 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - the incident can be adequately covered by an entry on the airport, airline and aircraft type articles. Not notable enough to sustain a stand-alone article. Mjroots (talk) 07:20, 24 December 2011 (UTC)
