quantas airbus - unexpected dive
from a international air safety report:
How does that compare to the airlines of other countries? The sixteen airlines based in other countries with flights exceeding 2 million per year average 1.10 fatal events per million flights, or more than four times worse than the U.S. average. The top 5 safest foreign airlines are:
British Airlines 0.17
SAS 0.19
Lufthansa 0.22
All Nippon Airlines 0.22
Air France 0.72 (not including the 6/1/09 crash)
If its rainy ,icy or otherwise nasty.... it feels good being on SAS ... they have had the best record over the decades... even though they operate out of northern latitudes
Id still think twice about boarding any airbus transpacific 'cept maybe the 320 in a pinch
