- Keep In terms of U.S. aviation accidents, this is notable. This also received significant media coverage at the time. Michael5046 (talk) 15:48, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep 14 died. Qantasplanes (talk) 12:59, 27 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- CommentThe standards for private plane crashes is different than that of commercial aviation. Fatalities doesn't make it automatically notable unless there is someone notable who dies in the crash. This accident doesn't meet that criteria.- William 13:58, 27 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - There is no apparent persistence beyond the "hey, this'll sell papers" stories. There were no WP-notable people involved in the accident, and no changes to regulations or procedures were made; the pilot failed to add deicer to the fuel, and this pilot error took 13 other people with him - but, while tragic, this is not a WP-notable crash.
