On the basis of a preiminary review of the accident rate charts below, I tentatively conclude the following:

1) KAL has a higher accident rate than most other airlines

2) As a group, European and Australian airlines have a significantly higher accident rate than U.S. airlines. Thus, by the same logic of those opposed to KAL travel (mostly Europeans and Australians, it seems from this and past discussions), the traveling public should avoid European and Australian airlines, as well as KAL.

3) Air is the safest mode of transportation, regardless of airline.

I also have suspicions about the authenticity of that Delta KAL document, as it contains language that would not be used by a native American English speaker.

Let us proceed based on reason and objectivity, not faith and superstition.
