So your saying that theres no “fake” Airbus or Boeing parts out on the market????
Your basically saying in your post that because its Russian and in Iran, its no doubt got “dodgy” parts. Hence that when a “western” airliner crashes there has never been found a fake part or the investigators never check parts or serial numbers?!
Oh please….
With all due respects sir, I don’t think he was saying that.
Parts problems exists all over the world, and I think that every major aviation nation had (and maybe will have) some problems in this regards.
I can recall a company in the US called Valuejet (or something like that) that had big (and fatal) troubles with this.
However it is a fact that we have today a serious aviation safety issue in Iran. There is no need for a PHD in statistics to establish that. It is also a fact that most of the incidents are happening with Russian built aircraft.
This is probably due to poor maintenance (corruption and maintenance “short-cuts”) and crew training that is of an unknown quality.
I have no doubts about that a well maintained TU154, or IL62 for that sake, is just as safe as a similar aircraft made in the US, but once flown in countries where maintenance and crew training is not the same as we can find in some large industrialized countries, well… we have exactly what we see in Iran today.
