  • Delete per nom. —TreasuryTag talkcontribs 17:25, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Comment There is some info on this plane on the web. Examples [1] and [2], but i'm not 100% sure if these satisfy WP:N. For now neutral but interested in others opinions on the sources.--Cube lurker (talk) 18:44, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
  • A bit of a puzzle. It's obviously notable to the degree that everyone who follows that sort of thing appears to know about it. Online justification for notability doesn't fit the standard rules, however. It may be necessary to go after print sources. Perhaps delete but without prejudice.

  • Delete without prejudice to re-creation if/once notability can be established. Cube lurker's link [2] above appears to be just reproducing a press release; link [1] is much better but not enough by itself i think. To quote from that, "It will be up to Erickson to develop an airshow program featuring the Turbine Toucan for the 2008 airshow season." If that succeeds (I almost said 'gets off the ground') then there's likely to be little problem establishing notability in a few months' time. In the meantime, WP shouldn't be used to aid their marketing to airshows. Qwfp (talk) 22:26, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
