RAF Valley Red Arrow crash

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

According to WP:AIRCRASH: Accidents involving light aircraft and military aircraft are mostly non-prominent. They account for many more accidents and incidents than larger civil aircraft. AIRCRASH is just an essay but it would have been a good place to start before wasting the time of creating this article. The person who tragically died is not notable in of themselves. It is far too soon to determine whether this could possibly have any substantial lasting significance, but, considering the news coverage died down after just about a day, there is a good sign that nothing significant came from this crash. The brevity and type of coverage received should have alarmed the creator to WP:NOTNEWS, and lead them to consider briefly mentioning this in a list or simply recognize this incident is not notable.

 * Delete. Mainly British coverage. No reason to expect this single fatality crash to have lasting notability. An article the ejection seat issues might have some merit (and lasting coverage).Icewhiz (talk) 07:11, 24 March 2018 (UTC)
