Alaska Airlines Flight 779

Deletion review for Alaska Airlines Flight 779

An editor has asked for a deletion review of Alaska Airlines Flight 779. Because you closed the deletion discussion for this page, speedily deleted it, or otherwise were interested in the page, you might want to participate in the deletion review. You were right to delete the old copy of the article, 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) 18:25, 23 April 2017 (UTC)
