There are lots more.


Airlines from the Canada get honorable mention. They ran out of gas twice, but managed to dead stick both jets to successful landings, on runways (one on a former runway, then dragstrip). Bad on them for running out of gas, but great aircraft handling skills!!

Looking back I think Skywest is pretty good.

Did I mention Air France is really bad?
That's because they grew up flying as bush pilots who fly off the seat of their pants using the "TLAR" method!
