Jolly good.

If we are addressing safety issues then why are they flying into Iraq, where it is proven to be unsafe? It is a war zone for f**** sake. Are DHL a military outfit now?

As far as I am concerned they crossed the line on safety when they decided for themslves to fly into a war zone. I guess it is the sort of outfit that would let a pilot go if he/she deviated from an SOP for E.G., during a check but quiet happy for their crews to risk life or limb in the name of corporate greed by flying in and out of Bagdad.
