That qualifies as luck, not a good safety record.

The NTSB database only shows one accident (failed NLG) and one incident (runway incidient with ATC faulted, not the airline) since 2002. It would seem that with all of these accidents / incidents that you mention that there would be more.
For the general reading public-
This is where I gathered the information and from an additional link on their website:
Aviation Accident Database Query
Is there a better place to search for information?
I see some web articles, personal blogs, etc...about failed engines and FAA safety awards and such.
Are problems in flight (like a failed engine) that don't end up in a smoking hole (thank goodness far and few between) not reported anywhere - even if an emergency was decalred; which I am of course assuming that emergencies were reported with this type of failure.
Fish - I understand that you seem to have some axe to grind with a non-union carrier, but is their safety record (and I'm talking accidents/incidents per flight hour ratio here) at the bottom of all Major/LCC/Cargo carriers or does this non-union carrier just hold a special dark place in your heart?
