So you're looking at it from a speculative/statistical standpoint then??
Given that there are no incidents that I'm aware of within Impulse -> Jetstar that have occurred arising from the lack of a LAME, is the fear borne from what MIGHT happen?
I guess what I'm finding strange is that there is this giant wave of anti-Jetstar sentiment arising from no LAME's doing the preflight, when Impulse has been doing this with little (if any that I've noticed) for the past 4 years. Current practice that always has been the norm.
Not saying I agree with it - but just trying to understand the logic. Why is it a problem now when it hasn't been in the past?
