Actually, you can see all aviation incidents (called CADORS) filed with Blue Bird's aircrafts here - CADORS: Summary Results

That is A LOT of incidents.

I only looked through the few and there were quite a few serious ones - electrical problems, smoke in cockpit, engine failure, crash landing (collapsed landing gear and prop strikes), radio failure. Looks like they have maintenance problems.

There were also a few takeoffs without clearance, flying through airspace without clearance (with an instructor on board, too), ignoring ATC requests, and other regulatory things.

I would definitely watch out.
