WP:BLP concerns; does not appear to readily meet WP:N. Entire notability appears to be tied into one event so WP:BLP1E is also a factor and concern. Being an executive at 1-2 corporations or 1-2 divisions of a corporation is not evidence of notability in any way, shape, or form, either. There are thousands of such corporations and divisions. Delete per WP:BLP, WP:BLP1E, and WP:N considerations. rootology ( C )( T ) 20:06, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

 * Redirect to United States Air Force tanker contract controversy (where his name is mentioned). I think this is a borderline case, as he did receive a fair amount of news coverage at the time of the case ; however, I can't find any significant coverage apart from that, so the WP:BLP1E argument seems strong here.

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Weak keep The actual notability is the fine for being guilty in the ethics breach (a rarity). This article needs major expansion, and has more relationship to the fired individual ( talk→  BWilkins   ←track ) 10:16, 13 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Redirect to United States Air Force KC-135 replacement effort. This is indeed a borderline case. There is little coverage of Sears not related to the corruption case, and I think there's enough information at the linked article and section to adequately cover him.
