The result was redirect to Tenerife airport disaster . Up to editors whether to merge anything from the history. "Significance noted in article" does not address the deletion rationale. Sandstein 11:09, 30 September 2016 (UTC)

Not notable - Aircraft is only really notable for the Tenerife airport disaster so doesnt really need a stand-alone article, other claims for notability are the firsst scheduled service and first to be hijacked are not really encyclopedic and without the accident would not get a mention. MilborneOne (talk) 19:15, 22 September 2016 (UTC)
- Keep. Significance noted in article. MordeKyle (talk) 20:32, 22 September 2016 (UTC)
- Delete - once the non-cited text is removed there isn't enough for a stand-alone article of any note. - Ahunt (talk) 20:43, 22 September 2016 (UTC)
- Weak keep. Hijacking on top of the accident tips the scales for me. Clarityfiend (talk) 21:51, 22 September 2016 (UTC)
- Delete I don't think the physical plane is notable as much as the hijacking might be (unsure, though). The accident is certainly notable, but again, I don't think the specific plane is. TonyBallioni (talk) 23:53, 22 September 2016 (UTC)
- Delete or Merge. This 747 is mainly notable due to hijacking; the aircraft can be covered in detail in the Tenerife airport disaster article or elsewhere. -Fnlayson (talk) 01:49, 23 September 2016 (UTC)
:*I've added a bit more about the hijacking. Fidel Castro was there to see it arrive. Clarityfiend (talk) 08:50, 23 September 2016 (UTC)
:* Adjusted my post above. There may be a better redirect target than the Tenerife article. -Fnlayson (talk) 17:25, 23 September 2016 (UTC)
