Missing the point?
This weeks Flight has an article on TransAsia (page 7) which points out that since 1995 this airline has suffered 7 significant safety incidents including the loss of 3 other ATRs and 1 Airbus A321.
The most severe prior incident was the crash of an ATR 72-500 in Magong on 23 July 2014 which resulted in 48 deaths.
By all means discuss the technical aspects of this incident but the real question for me is why was the Airline permitted to keep flying when it has such a poor safety record?
