Cannot see why this individual aircraft passes WP:GNG. TheLongTone (talk) 12:07, 2 August 2018 (UTC)
- Comment It passes GNG because the article cites two independent reliable sources with substantial coverage. Surprisingly, this particular aircraft seems rather famous in Indonesia: there is even a memorial to it. Now, wikinotability doesn't care about memorials but it does care about sources. Meeting the GNG criteria only provides a presumption for an article, not a guarantee, so if you'd like to come back with a further reason for a deletion I'll say if I agree.

- merge to Avro Anson I find it peculiar that there's no mention of this aircraft in the main article, so there's a problem, but the few sentences could easily be merged into it in the various appropriate places. Mangoe (talk) 14:03, 2 August 2018 (UTC)

- Keep Seems to be a reasonably historic aircraft. Andrew D. (talk) 17:42, 3 August 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. Seems this individual aircraft, its purchase, and subsequent loss have received GNG. I definitely would not merge to Avro Anson (a type with 11,000 produced) - if a merge is considered - then to Indonesian Air Force or other Indonesia specific aviation/history article. There are multiple books and news items covering this, and the aircraft itself, as evident in the article, has a monument.Icewhiz (talk) 11:59, 6 August 2018 (UTC)

- Keep. Reference 2 has a page-and-a-bit specifically about this plane; and I've just added another citation, a 4-page newspaper article. Narky Blert (talk) 07:56, 7 August 2018 (UTC)
- Keep for the reasons given in my comment above. Thincat (talk) 10:27, 7 August 2018 (UTC)
