So, there are three rules for an airline to comply with
1. Safety
2. Comfort of the passengers
3. Imrpove punctuality and image of the airline
Every pilot should know these…

Hmm, this airline isn’t really caring about safety, as long as they can fly. They’ll get in real trouble soon, can’t some organisation withdraw their license?

No, he said all they showed was “ARCHIVE” material. It could have been any one of their fleet.
