I can hardly remember the last RAAF accident and they do a lot of comparatively risky flying compared to RPT. Training had a very high standard.
I agree extralite. Look at our C-130 operations, the RAAF has operated a total of 48 C-130 Hercules of various models from the late 50's till now, and to my knowledge have never bent one. We gift our Northern neighbors some "H" models and they crashed one recently. And don't tell me that it's due to the environment that our herc's operate in. Our herc's and their crews go everywhere. Yeah, the overall safety record is pretty impressive.
