WP:BLP1E. Should be a redirect to US Airways Flight 1549, but not an article on its own.

• Then withdraw the deletion, merge any information, and redirect the article. No need for an AFD to do this. Bjelleklang - talk 14:13, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

• The article has already been redirected and the redirect subsquently overturned by some overeager individual. No, unfortunately this needs an AfD. 78.34.145.54 (talk) 14:15, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

• Keep he meets the notability by having co-authored those papers. I think that as more comes out about him, there will be more notability for him. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 14:18, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect as notability has not been established outside the US Airways Flight 1549 article. Thanks, SqueakBox 14:18, 16 January 2009 (UTC) Keep based on snowball effect and new arguments. Thanks, SqueakBox 14:39, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
• Keep I believe that the academic and professional work in accident investigation are notable. The crash certainly enhances this, but I believe notability was established before that. --Daysleeper47 (talk) 14:24, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
• keep His notability existed prior to the recent event for expertise in aviation safety.Synchronism (talk) 14:26, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
• Keep per Daysleeper. -- Sozi (talk) 14:28, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
• Keep: He has some important events and accomplishments to his name, even other than the US Airways Flight 1549 incident. I think this article should be included. Chamal 14:31, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
• Keep: Mr Sullenberger has now become an historical aviator - the first pilot to successfully ditch a large commercial aircraft with no fatalities. A place in history should equate to one's own wiki page. --Space cadet65 (talk) 14:43, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
• Ok then, but at least now we know. Withdraw AfD. 78.34.128.236 (talk) 14:57, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
• Keep and snowball it- the guy's notable enough for his own article. Umbralcorax (talk) 14:58, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

• I have already withdrawn my AfD nom. 78.34.128.236 (talk) 14:58, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Ok, sorry. Didn't mean to seem like I was piling on. Umbralcorax (talk) 15:04, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
