Article should be moved

Hi, I'm the creator of this article. I believe that the article should be changed to 1977 British Airtours Boeing 707 crash, because there aren't any air accident articles that have the registration number (not that know of) if an flight number is unavailable or not applicable. However, if the name is changed, any articles that this has been linked to, such as the Incidents and Accidents section in the British Airtours article, the link should be modified to prevent another article named British Airtours G-APFK to be created by another user. This is just my opinion and recommendation, but I leave the other Wikipedia users or editors of this article to express their explanation on why or why not this article should be moved. Thank you.

@GoMan195531: - Thank you for your comments. If the article is moved, the current title will become a redirect. There will be no need to change most of the links per WP:NOTBROKEN (the link in the crashes navbox is one exception). Mjroots (talk) 06:28, 2 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
