Non-notable incident, fails both WP:NOTNEWS and WP:LASTING. Basically an airliner took off, lost some altitude for undetermined reasons, recovered with no damage, injuries or deaths and continued to its destination. The regulatory authority, the US FAA, declined to investigate and the NTSB had indicated they may have been interested in investigating but never published a report. It was a total non-event, with no lasting effects, no changes in procedures, no airworthiness directives or any other outcomes. Just not notable in any way.

• Delete no evidence of significant third party coverage, changes to procedures or other follows up from an investigation. No indication this was anything in any way notable other than a minor error with no consequences such as happens all the time. Canterbury Tail talk 18:07, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete This is a minor incident with no clear significance. -Fnlayson (talk) 18:13, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - May not aviation-specific notability guidelines but it does meet WP:GNG by virtue of significant coverage in multiple reliable sources. ~Kvng (talk) 18:33, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: - I did not cite any "aviation-specific notability guidelines". You can note that the policy I did cite in this nomination is applicable to all Wikipedia articles and specifically says Wikipedia is not a newspaper ... News reports. Wikipedia considers the enduring notability of persons and events. While news coverage can be useful source material for encyclopedic topics, most newsworthy events do not qualify for inclusion... - Ahunt (talk) 19:01, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Deeday-UK's PROD rational was doesn't meat criteria of Wikipedia:WikiProject Aviation/Aircraft accidents and incidents and you seconded with just not notable and then included a bunch of aviation-specific discussion in your justification for deletion above and somehow I didn't see WP:NOTNEWS and WP:LASTING. So now that I do, I'm changing my !vote. Thanks for your patience. ~Kvng (talk) 03:23, 17 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    For the record, the PROD was not mine; I only fixed what looked like a messy edit involving a pre-existing PROD template. --Deeday-UK (talk) 18:44, 17 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - Does not meet WP:NEVENT. All coverage was published the same week.~Kvng (talk) 03:27, 17 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. Only routine news coverage, no WP:SIGCOV. Doesn't come close to WP:EVENTCRIT. I wouldn't even consider this notable enough for a list of aircraft incidents. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 19:12, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Unnotable. Does not meet WP:AIRCRASH guidelines.--Jetstreamer ^Talk 22:33, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  Note that WP:AIRCRASH says, Because this is an essay and not policy and also because it should not be applied to stand-alone accident articles, it is recommended that it not be cited at Articles for Deletion discussions for either keeping or deleting. ~Kvng (talk) 03:30, 17 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Strong Delete. Not notable. Moreover, poorly made and does not meet WP:NEWS per above. 🛧Layah50♪🛪 ( 話す? 一緒に飛ぼう！) 05:17, 17 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Not notable enough, by using the logic you used while creating this page, the qatar b787 nosedive should have an article on wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 103.220.79.9 (talk) 01:20, 18 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete as per all of the above. This event was (mercifully) not notable.TH1980 (talk) 03:04, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per Kvng. Very minor incident (compared to other events) that resulted in no injuries and no damage. Nythar (💬-🍀) 23:31, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
