The subject was the pilot of Southwest Airlines Flight 1380 which had an engine failure and decompression. She followed procedure and landed the plane safely. That makes her a reliable employee, not a hero, and certainly not notable. Likewise, being "one of the first female fighter pilots in the United States Navy" is not notable as others preceded her. Any biography that includes pet chickens and Sunday school teaching is clearly struggling for relevance. WWGB (talk) 10:57, 19 April 2018 (UTC)

- Keep The subject clearly passes WP:BASIC as there is extensive global coverage of her specifically in numerous quality sources such as the NYT and BBC. There is detailed coverage of her in sources which pre-date the latest incident and so she has multiple claims to notability. The details of her personal life are appropriate for a fully-rounded biography and the fact that such details are available further demonstrates her notability. Note that she is being compared to Chesley Sullenberger and it would be iniquitous to delete a woman's article while keeping an equivalent man. Andrew D. (talk) 11:07, 19 April 2018 (UTC)
- Delete In my view, this is a classic example of WP:SUSTAINED and WP:BLP1E; in fact the second paragraph of the WP:SUSTAINED description presents exactly what this person is: notable for a single event and likely to remain a low-profile individual. Rentzepopoulos (talk) 12:00, 19 April 2018 (UTC)

- Keep The U.S. Navy felt that she was worthy of publicity in 1992. This is her second appearance in the news. – Maliepa (talk) 13:06, 19 April 2018 (UTC)
