They've banged all but 2 of their most recent 739ERs.
This year alone we've had engine panels detaching itself mid flight, and another engine panel somehow got sucked into the engine causing a "spectacular show" last month. (Both MDs)

Also last month a 734 had it's flap fairing dislodged and they continued the take off and route. I Witness MetroTV
Crew still has no roster, everyone gets an SMS everynight to inform them what they'll do the next day. Crew overrunning their annual hour limits isn't news still.

A few months ago, one lost cabin pressure decided to divert, and flight crew was bollocked by the management for "revealing too much info to the pax"... The same also happened on a case a few days later of smoke in the cabin. And one was preparing to ditch into Java sea... though they made it to Surabaya....

I won't put them as a Cat3 show, but a Cat1?????
