Lack of accidents / incidents does not reflect a safe operation, not by a long shot.
In this country I do not believe there is a CHIRP or ASRS in place yet. In RSA there is, but not user friendly. You cant file over the net, you have to post or fax.
Captains interfering.....difficult to answer as we are mostly the same level of experience, 1000tt to 3000tt. Used to have lots of two crew operations but now fewer such ops.
