2008 Farnborough plane crash[edit]

Fails WP:N. Cessnas crash all the time. Only a handful of people were killed in this one, and for the two who have articles, it's quite sufficient to mention the manner of death in their respective biographies (which we already do). Biruitorul (talk) 04:01, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - I specifically checked this out before creating the article. It is a notable crash that meets the WikiProject Aviation guidelines:-

General aviation/corporate aviation/private aircraft:
Accidents are generally not notable unless unusual circumstances are involved, notable people are involved (my bolding), or the incident/accident otherwise results in downstream changes to the industry or procedures. Note: momentary news coverage, which would not last beyond the immediate timeframe of the accident, does not confer notability.

In this case, there are two notable people involved - Richard Lloyd and David Leslie - so the article does meet the criteria above. The full text is available here Mjroots (talk) 05:18, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep the prominent location and notability of the casualties make this more notable than the average Cessna crash. Mazca (talk) 10:08, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep also in Italy this incident recived a media covarage due to the place where happened and the people involved.(User:Lucifero4)
Strong keep per WP:AIRCRASH. I see absolutely no way how a plane crashing into a house isn't notable and significant. Celarnor ^{Talk to me} 11:38, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - notable incident. Planes don't very often crash into houses and injure people on the ground. Canterbury Tail talk 15:50, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy snowball keep - has more than minor notability factors: had notable people on board, crashed into a house in London, manner of crash etc. -- Roleplayer (talk) 16:56, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
