 * Delete, Wikipedia is not a news source. Event is a minor occurence in aviation.  This article fails to meet notability.  In addition the article is an orphan Trashbag (talk) 16:15, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, Wikipedia is not an aviation incident database. The events are not significant and happen too frequently for there to be any encyclopedic purpose in highlighting some that make the media. --Dhartung | Talk 17:38, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, Wikipedia is not a news service. I can not see why there would be any lasting significance of this event. J Milburn (talk) 17:59, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete This is just about a flight number with a collection of things that happened on one occasion or another. It would set a bad precedent to keep this, since we could have articles on every scheduled flight with a log of incidents (tire blew, bomb threat, unruly passenger, dirty restroom, bumpy ride, diverted to another airport.)

 * Delete; too trivial an incident for encylopedic inclusion. --MCB (talk) 18:28, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. But I'll wait for the next flight, since this one appears to be jinxed.  Mandsford (talk) 19:18, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, no evidence of encyclopedic notability. Stuff happens TRAVELLINGCARI My storyTell me yours 19:39, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - Not notable, just another bad day at the office nothing unusual. MilborneOne (talk) 20:12, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - none of the incidents mentioned were serious enough for any non-trivial mention in any kind of reliable source. Major airliner incidents are of course worth writing an article about, but not stuff like this. Matthew Brown (Morven) (T:C) 20:35, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Very serious incidents which imperiled the survival of the aircraft, such as Air Transat 236 running out of fuel in midair are notable, as are some events which gained unusual levels of interest (e.g. JetBlue 292). However, the incidents listed here are routine snags, handled routinely without any drama, and presented little danger. Sjakkalle (Check!)  09:32, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Potentialy those hydraulic problems are interesting, but interest does not equal notability. Will rethink if the FAA changes regulations or grunds aircraft something comparable due to this. Blood Red Sandman  (Talk)   (Contribs) 21:14, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
