racedo,
For clarity I'm not suggesting that maintenance is lacking at Ryanair or easyJet, or at BA. I'm saying that like in past instances like with Valujet, the loss of an aircraft had a devastating impact on the company and it subsequently rebranded itself etc. Press coverage zoomed in on budget carrier my as cost cutting etc. Legacy carriers have walked away from serious accidents largely unaffected.examples include AF, SAS etc.
