You were comparing an accident before CRM was taught to an accident after it has been worldwide adopted and tried and tried again to be taught to asian carriers. I know you just really wanted to go after the meanie head Delta guy, but you chose poorly on accident comparison.

I do come across that way here don't I? My apologies. I love your airline. I used Delta as an example because it was you who seems to be looking down at Asiana. The widget comment was just humor which seldom comes across well on forums.

Delta Air Lines founded 1928
Asiana Airlines founded 1988
Seeing as how Delta has been in existence for 60 years MORE then Asiana & was a pioneer in the airline industry, there is a chance more people have perished on Delta.
But you'd have to provide numbers to prove it. And total fatalities doesn't tell the entire story.
Here's something to help get you started. Notice who number 2 & 3 on the least fatalities for US operators list are. In the top 5 if mixed in with foreign operators.

Thank you for the education about the safest airlines. I think I'll ride SWA next time as they are obviously more safe than delta.

Good for you j. The point is that your comment about 214 was a cheap shot. Personally, no amount of time negates the fact that a life was lost. Get over your superiority complex.

No worries. I'm personally not looking down on anyone. But their were posts made by people other then me. Asiana 214 could be anyone of us one day. I actually feel bad for the guys. It must've been terrifying going through that in a foreign country. My original point was only that US airlines are far ahead in the field of CRM. I'm very happy that there were so few fatalities from the Asiana accident. I just hope that we can all learn from it, and apply what we learn. Me included.
