I don't fathom how your posts seem to paint only in black and white, with no pretense at a fair discussion. I grant you that Korean (as in KAL) has had past problems including a scathing audit by DAL. I had thought the purpose of such an audit was to encourage improvement and addressing of issues. Supposedly with time which has now past, improvement was expected. Now the safety issue has expanded into a new arena ,which is the amount and quality of expected oversight by a Government agency. I don't see why this should be a condemnation of a specific airline. The code 2 you mention is not a rating of either Asiana or Korean Airline's current capability or performance in a safety arena. It seems to be a rating of the current capability of the KCAB which is now being rapidly addressed.

You may use your freedom of choice to not fly any airline you choose, but lets be objective about assigning past tense to present and future tense when it comes to airline safety.
