Delete, appears to fail WP:GNG Hell In A Bucket (talk) 19:28, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

Notification of this deletion discussion has been made at WikiProject Avition and at WikiProject Aircraft, under whose scope the article falls. - Ahunt (talk) 19:36, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

• Keep - A significant US aircraft manufacturer. The existing refs in the article, specifically the World Directory of Leisure Aviation establish notability. The use of this ref was previously established at a previous AFD, but I will attempt to add further refs. As a note this article was nominated for deletion without any questions or discussion only twelve minutes after it was created. It would have been polite to at least discuss any concerns on the talk page and ask for more refs prior to nomination for AfD. - Ahunt (talk) 19:42, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

I googled this company and in news there is very little coverage and two of the references cited here is the manufacturer itself. As expressed above I believe it fails notability guidelines. It's not nec to talk to a talk page when we can have a afd and sort it out as a consensus and delete (or not) rather then prolong the pain of a talk page discussion then another discussion here.

After writing this I do see you're a very experienced editor, that being said if you think this is notable and you can flesh it out please close with my complete understanding. Hell In A Bucket (talk) 19:50, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

Are you withdrawing the nomination? — ΛΧΣ21™ 19:54, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

I have my concerns but I think Ahunt's edit history warrants letting him flesh it out so yes I will. Hell In A Bucket (talk) 19:55, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

I should be able to find additional references in the seminal Janes All The World's Aircraft, but as these are only located in the downtown branch of my public library it may take a day or two to add them. In the meantime, since the relevant WikiProjects have been notified, members of the projects may be able to add further references. - Ahunt (talk) 19:58, 14 October 2012 (UTC)
