SAFETY! SAFETY! SAFETY! ALWAYS.

There are different levels of safety across the world. There is also a lot of written stuff about it but all that has human being's factor and the environment he/she lives in professionally.
The level of safety in country A, despite the same training, procedures and reading material to refer to, isn't the same in country K and so on... The truth of the matter is in the "safety culture" of the local authority and consequently its effective authority to the operators registered with that authority. Unfortunately, greed is plenty among owners, share holders, managers have to show (good) black balances at the end of fiscal year and many aspects of safety related issues are just "shelved".
It's a difficult task. It's progressive professionalism that has the key for a safe operation and that ought to be taken by everyone in the aviation business.
THE WORLD AVIATION COWBOYS(GIRLS) MUST BE STOPPED AND ARCHIVED FOR GOOD.
