24 sources, but no evidence this airline is in any way notable. It's out of business and seems to be just another commuter airline. Not encyclopedic in tone and not something anyone is going to look up Basegirlball (talk) 00:33, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Speedy keep Just because something no longer exists doesn't mean it's not notable. This page has 24 sources, which means that it's obviously notable if someone bothered to give it in depth coverage. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 00:36, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Speedy keep Notability is not temporary so just because it's out of business doesn't mean it's no longer notable. Also, (as another user stated) it has 24 sources so it is definitely notable. --On the other side Contribs|@ 00:43, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Speedy keep. Interesting rise and fall of an airline, it was important at the time. --Matt (talk) 00:43, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
