Non-notable cargo plane incident. Missing aircraft happen regularly. WP:NOTNEWS also applies. ...William 18:14, 26 June 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete Only two likely fatalities and it involves a small aircraft. Suspect this probably wasn't even earth-shattering news in Uruguay, not to mention internationally. Michael5046 (talk) 19:07, 26 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete - not a small aircraft (a 'large aircraft' is legally defined as any aircraft of 12500 lb MTOW of above, and the aircraft in question is 14500 to 16000 lb) but the scope of the accident and its situation mitigate against notability to the point where deletion is appropriate. - The Bushranger posting as Aerobird from a public computer Talk 20:15, 26 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - It did make headlines for several days and there are still reports about it in the media, a big operation to locate it was launched including Navy and Air force, but I also think that it fails notability for a full article. It would be more appropriate to list it somewhere instead including some basic details. Hoverfish Talk 14:44, 27 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Note: Also the aircraft is thought to have fallen. Nothing has been found to prove it did. Hoverfish Talk 14:50, 27 June 2012 (UTC)
 * The fact it vanished is a good clue though. - The Bushranger One ping only 19:35, 27 June 2012 (UTC)
