Blueray,
Once again, if you are so happy to talk about airline safety records then please do state who exactly you work for??? I can almost guarantee that I could dredge up untold numbers of incidents for almost any UK operator. BA is my third airline job, withstanding the very public
PR disasters (T5, Baggage etc..), I can safely say that maintenance and safety culture is the best I have seen it at any airline I have worked for. I have not had any maintenance related issues in the course of my working life at BA, not something I could say at my previous airlines.
