Why is it that Quantas never crashes?

Asked by GeorgeGee (4930points) November 4th, 2010

Even when their engines disintegrate in mid-air, it seems they safely land.

Honestly, I don’t know. Have you seen this article? It seems to suggest that a serious incident in the future isn’t that unlikely, given Qantas’ recent safety record.

Yikes, no, hadn’t seen that article. I wonder if such things are going on in all airlines today as they try to “maximize shareholder value?”

Because it is such a good airline and they never usually have problems, plus its Australian, you’re always going to get the best :)
