Challenged PROD. This is a tragic, but ultimately non-notable general aviation accident. The general expression of consensus on this sort of incident, WP:AIRCRASH, is not met, and it fails the WP:GNG as well. This accident is already covered, appropriately, at Tweed New Haven Regional Airport#Incidents; a merge/redirect may be a possible alternative.

  • Delete Delete as failing WP:NOTNEWS policy as lacking any form of enduring significance, it was in the news because it was a news story. Not sold on the idea of a redirect as "2013 Rockwell 690B crash" is not a helpful search term. LGA talk 02:51, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
  • Delete, because WP:EVENT is ot met: The crash has not been th subject of any media coverage other than initial news bulletins.--FoxyOrange (talk) 06:11, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
  • Delete - fails to meet the consensus standard WP:AIRCRASH and especially the Misplaced Pages policy WP:NOTNEWSPAPER. This sort of accident is tragic, but a daily common occurrence in aviation worldwide. The accident has not resulted in any lasting effects, such as airworthiness directives service bulletins, changes in ATC or pilot operational or training procedures. - Ahunt (talk) 12:06, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
  • Merge (with default redirect) per nom. Not notable, but worth a mention. Ansh666 19:33, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
  • Keep 2 children dead on the ground, plane destroys two houses in a city -- this is not just an air crash of a small plane with people aboard getting dead. Notability requirements are not just those pertaining to air crashes, but to community involved as well, and it obviously transcends the destination airport's. --Mareklug 06:33, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
Well actually it is. The aircraft just happened to hit the houses, it was not a deliberate act! This accident does not rate a stand-alone page, but there is no reason why you can't add a paragraph into the East Haven, Connecticut article.--Petebutt (talk) 08:52, 21 August 2013 (UTC)
