ftldave Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 The Telegraph published this interesting story about the safety of Aeroflot. Its accident rate in the 1960s and 70s was way above average, flying all Russian-built planes at the time and not participating in international safety standards. But, as the author correctly points out, the numbers were very much skewed by the incredible number of flights: Aeroflot was a huge airline, and hundreds of thousands of flights occurred every year without incident. Add to that the anti-Soviet bent in western media during the Cold War, and then perhaps the safety of Russians planes should get a new perspective. AEROFLOT - FROM WORLD'S DEADLIEST AIRLINE TO ONE OF THE SAFEST IN THE SKY P.S. Strange, but true - the best airline food I ever had was on, yes, Aeroflot. It's the lousy Russian airports and their always-rude employees that are consistently godawful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flightsimg Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Is the girl in red gown the specialist to shock absorbers in their planes. If not, she's a cute agent of the KGB, or FSS! :):) Gérard Guichard, Dijon, Burgundy, France. i5 Intel processor, 4 Go of Ram, Nvidia GeForce 920MX, DirectX 12.0, and FSX Gold Edition with SP1, SP2.
