True, but I wasn't around them so can't compare to today. All I will say is that judging by the stories and dits told in various crew rooms (and listed in threads on here) by those that were there, safety is viewed much differently today. Things that happened then simply wouldn't be tolerated as ALARP or considered safe these days.
Safety, how it's viewed and managed has moved on, despite what the 'when I was on (insert pre-90's type)' brigade on Pprune will admit to!
