Alaska Airlines Flight 779 – Moot. It's not actually clear what the original request was. Please, folks, when you make a request, it really helps to be super-clear about what it is that you're requesting. But, in any case, there's an AfD running now, so this DRV discussion is not needed. – -- RoySmith (talk) 11:08, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Alaska Airlines Flight 779-the old copy should have been deleted: it was crappy, did not follow basic guidelines for formatting an aircraft accident article. (old article here-http://www.rc135.com/0011/ALASKA_A.HTM) The old one was deleted on grounds of notability, as there was confusion about id the people killed in the crash were military of civilian. (They were civilian employees of Alaska Airlines) The crash involved hull loss, killed all occupants on board, and started a precedent for changes in runway lighting laws (The aircraft was landing legally at the time, but the circumstances of the today would be illegal.) The cause of the crash was not the usual case of blatant pilot error, hence it is notable given the current correct information.--PlanespotterA320 (talk) 18:23, 23 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

As the original AfD was 4 years ago, I think another afD should be held. L3X1 (distant write) 19:31, 23 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
