I meant fatal ACMI accidents. UPS was less than 10 years ago, maybe Fed Ex MD11 in Japan as well? I'm too lazy to look it up for this discussion.

The NeverEnding Story

The UPS flight in DXB full of burning batteries was Flight 6.

If non fatal, a ton more like Skylease, the MD80 in YIP, was it Miami Air that ran off the end of the runway in Jax?

I was counting fatal and non-fatal accidents. There are a lot.

Every time I come back to these forums and read your posts, I am reminded why this forum provides almost 0 value to my life...

Well, I'd say you use this forum for the exact same reason I do, based on your post.

Call me crazy, but the last several pages has brought up many accidents. If nothing else this should be a fair reminder to keep our eyes on the prize while we operate. I would bet none of the crews in any of the accidents mentioned (or otherwise) thought they would be in an accident. Talking in terms of solidarity, the best thing we can do is watch out for each other either on the line or JS or other. In other words we are each other’s best friend in terms of safety. 2019 has been a bad year. Let’s work to see 2020

My friend was the jumpseater on Atlas, couldn't agree more.

Every. single. time. Who cares?

I still get "Who do you fly for?"

"FedEx"

"Cool, it must suck to always fly at night. Do you think you will ever go to a REAL airline?"

"...no"
