As far as I know, and with the help of Google, Dragon Flight doesn't exist. Nathan121212 (talk) 18:30, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Smerge and redirect. It exists,[1] it's just several levels of detail below what our articles currently describe or what notability supports. Dragon Flight is the air show demonstration team that is part of the March Field Aero Club. But we don't have an article for that, either. I'd suggest slightly expanding March Air Reserve Base#March Field Airfest to mention the Aero Club (and, possibly, the demonstration team), and then redirecting to whatever section name that target winds up with after the expansion.

  • Delete I found absolutely no independent reliable-source coverage about Dragon Flight, or about its parent the March Field Aero Club (which appears to be a flight school). So a freestanding article is out of the question. The name is not unique (see Dragonflight as well as various books [2] [3], organizations [4], video games [5], etc.) so I think a redirect is inappropriate. --MelanieN (talk) 21:00, 13 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
