What are your numbers? You're right, it's not a Boeing, but it's a safe airplane. The Titanic had the worst accident rate per NM floated,...

WOW JetJocF14! We're all impressed with your wisdom and credentials. Now, if you could only learn to use "you're" in your sentences, you would be absolutely perfect!

Actually, the Concorde has the worst accident fatality rate of any commercial aircraft. It only takes one when the airframe numbers are small. A quick review of MD accidents shows that almost all of them are gross pilot error, not a reflection of the aircraft, but small numbers of airframes operating in a difficult environment.

I guess it was when I was sitting at "F" street, you know the Fed Ex beat down bar...........:)


But seriously ask any Fed assigned to the certificate over a beer and find out how close the grounding came after the last sky flail. One more and the program is done that day, that is from the main 121 guy in DC.

Flail not my purple feathered friends...:)

If you don't even know who was "beat down" in F Street then why should anyone believe anything from you?

Obviously, you are just flame baiting :(

My understanding is our accident rate effects our insurance more then it effects our Feds. I'm pretty sure if we have another accident FedEx will be looking at self insurance. Pretty costly I imagine and I hope we can continue to fly safely in the future.

So you've been having beers with the main 121 guy in DC? Yeah, I'll believe that just because some yahoo posted it on the internet. I mean, it's on the internet, its got to be true!:rolleyes:
