Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Qantas Flight 30
To me the article satisfies  easily and (although not as relevant) the comments on  as well anyway.  The incident has - for the time being - been classed as a Serious Incident by the ATSB on the http://www.atsb.gov.au/publications/investigation_reports/2008/AAIR/aair200804689.aspx initial basic incident report.  It involves not merely the loss of some fairing panels, but rather these appear to have been lost due to a significant rupture of the aircraft's skin.  This rupture resulted in an explosive decompression, which is a rare and significant event.  Obviously there will be a glut of media coverage at this time, but this includes signficant photographic evidence, video evidence, first hand passenger accounts and airport official accounts of the incident, on top of statements from Qantas and the ATSB.  Regardless of the root cause and the inevitable ATSB report, this is ''already'' a article about a notable event.  Regarding  - the event involved serious damage to the aircraft, satisfying one of the example criteria on that project page.  Being repairable does not mean it is not serious damage
