There is cooperative culture--on time checks continue to flow. There are pockets of highly competent safety awareness at most levels of ops, but corporately it's essentially "how much will this cost?"

Their response to this lawsuit says it all. "Our training procedures, which are fully approved and closely monitored by the FAA, meet or exceed safety standards, and we are a safe airline." This is the classic "the FAA hasn't shut us down, ergo, we are by definition safe." Sound familiar? It's what Colgan said after the Buffalo accident. It's a lawyer's definition.

Line CAs in right seat? Must be safe since the FAA allows it.
Coach rest seats? Must be safe since the FAA allows it.
Eight hour rest? Must be safe since the FAA allows it.
Train by CBT? Must be safe since the FAA allows it.

The FAA is in the business of preventing the last accident. A safety culture is organic to the organization itself and is focused on preventing the next one.
