This article describes an individual aircraft. There is not significant coverage of this aircraft as a topic in itself, in secondary sources. WP:Notability (aircraft) suggests that "an individual aircraft is almost certainly not notable unless it has been at least one of the following: 1. The major subject of a reliable book or monograph, 2. The major subject of a half hour or longer broadcast on a national radio or TV network, 3. The subject of multiple, non-trivial published works whose sources are independent of the aircraft's builder, manufacturer, owner, or operator, with at least some of these works serving a general audience." This aircraft does not meet these requirements. Almost all of the content of the article is already adequately covered at HMS Cardiff (D108) and Christopher Clayton.

Your first point is probably correct, however these articles do not cover the aircraft's Gulf War service, only the Falklands War service. WikiCopter (radio • sorties • images • shot down) 14:58, 14 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Sorry Wikicopter but I have to agree that there is nothing to establish any sort of individual notability here, and that's reflected in the sources. I'd suggest that any Gulf War material is put into the relevant section in 829 NAS. Ranger Steve ^Talk 16:11, 14 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've now merged the relevant info into 829 Naval Air Squadron as suggested. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 20:13, 20 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per nom - there's nothing to establish that this helicopter is individually notable Nick-D (talk) 06:15, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per nomination. Anotherclown (talk) 14:20, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge content per Ranger Steve's suggestion, then Delete due to a lack of independant notability. bahamut0013^words_deeds 15:47, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
