Wonder if that top notch Asian CRM will turn out to be a factor.

If they don't, there will be a big push for continuous sat/ground position telemetry over non-radar or remote areas.

You have GOT to be $#@&^% kidding me!!! Finally, a shred of hope for pilots in the post 911 airline industry (profits, retirements, not having to buy a job anymore, etc.) and these damned Asian airlines are screwing it up for all of us!!! ICAO, if they can't get it done safely, competent western airlines will be happy to take up the slack by covering those routes!!!

My thoughts are with the families, and I hope it turns out to be a non-event.

They don't let us fly their fancy new fangled airplanes unless we have 500 on type, but if they crash the sim on their checkride, no sweat.
