With Boeing in Cross Hairs, Lion Air Gets a Pass on Poor Safety Record

[blowtorch]

We always advice people and our guests not to use Lion air. So many problem with delay in the past and this is before Boeing problem.

We always curious...Sriwijaya Air to this day never had a plane went down yet their safety rate poorly. But Lion air with plane falling almost once every few years gets good safety ratings.

That's interesting to hear. Why is that?

I have used Sriwijaya air several times without any problems. Their airplanes are maintained by Garuda Maintenance Facility Aero Asia, which also maintain Garuda airplanes.

Didn't Garuda just cut them loose?

Almost all of the airlines in Indonesia are in the worst ten airlines rating. You really have very little choice when travelling in Indonesia. That being said the risk is still very small.

"Not part of Boeing's culture" he says.

It appears that he doesn't know much about Boeing's culture. . .
