Indonesia grounds nine airlines
|
Indonesian fudge
Corrupt country, exemplified by the decision above. Garuda have a shocking record, and are lauded. :ugh:
|
Am I blind? I can see the 5 airlines, that have been suspended
SMAC, Kura-Kura Aviation, Germania Trisila, Atlas Deltasatya and Survei Udara Penas :8 |
Garuda have a shocking record, and are lauded. But yeah I agree, a country corrupt to the core, left right center top to bottom. Got a friend living there, heard horrors :(. I wonder if Adam Air have been smacked too, anyone have info? |
but which are the other 4 that had their licenses revoked? From http://www.thejakartapost.com/detail...5184644&irec=0 I wonder if Adam Air have been smacked too, anyone have info? From http://abc.net.au/news/stories/2007/...section=justin |
Garuda generally are not that bad (YOG crash aside), and I would not be too worried flying with them. Maintenance is supposedly outsourced to LH technicians.
For Adam Air to have been promoted to group 2 and not suspended does beggar belief. Or not, given KKN. I was in Jakarta last week having dinner with a friend who works as a loss adjuster there and he was seriously contemplating using AA to fly somewhere to do a survey, hopefully I dissuaded him!! |
"Garuda generally are not that bad" - unless , of course, you have been on one of their many aircraft that have crashed and killed people . I'm sure someone out there can provide accurate figures.
I wouldn't go near them. |
Rush 2112,
I hope your friend is not an aviation loss adjuster.....!!! He would be mad to do it if he was !!! |
Priapism, i think the point Rush was trying to make is that if you wanted to go from Balikpapan to Unjung Pandang, or Semarang to Jogjakarta and your choices were 1) Garuda; 2) Adam Air; 3) Merpati; 4) Sempati; 5) Pelita..... so on & so on, chances are you'd still go with Garuda wouldn't you say? short of hiring a Seneca or Aztec & doing it yourself, of course
|
So, Adam Air's reward for consistently unsafe practices, a major crash, and obstructing investigations, is to have some of its competitors removed from the market by the government. Neat.
