411A, if you know what "world football" is and the recent events in World Cup qualifiers, I'll say to you that I'm no Thierry Henry or Michel Platini to cradle Air France to the summit of safety standards and pretend all is well.
This thread is not between me and you, so (please) focus on the subject and lets' not wander around. If you wish to carry on, you can keep the cup with the "hand of Thierry or Maradona" if you like.
My comment was about the fragilities in the safety checking system around the world with special incidence on countries where AOCs are issued (or re-issued) and fail to carry out stringent checks.
ICAO has to engage and ensure all countries follow stringent safety standards, audit them frequently across the spectrum so that some non-complaint operators based non-compliant countries do not take (commercial) advantage operating their aircraft at all.
I rest my case.
