Their last crash was in December 1997 and there were no fatalities. The last crash with fatalities was in 1983 where 23 out of the 46 on board died. Their biggest crash was in 1970 where all passengers on board died. No need to thank me. You're my hero! Now I can sleep at night.

I also take in to consideration the country the plane is from. Its important to know who is doing the maintenance on planes I think. For example, you are not going to fly an African airline based on the fact that their economic instability may lead to cost cutting when it comes to aircraft maintenance plus they don't have to comply with recognised standards. Why the fuck risk it? For example, the probability of crashing on a BA flight is something like 160,000,000 - 1. The probablity of crashing on an African flight is about 60,000 - 1. I'm not taking any chances! Yeah the 737 crashes (there were a few over a few years) were attributed to problems with the rudder. I think it was something to do wth particles of metail getting in to the hydraulics that control the rudder. The NTSB conducted a huge investigation.

I like to take one with a recent crash. If figure the ones with no crashes in 30 years are due.

Why the fuck risk it? Well, duh. I was referring to the major airlines in the US, which are all about the same safety-wise. Choosing an airline here based on "safety record" would be idiotic...unless of course it was an 8 seater prop "airline" in Alaska, as specified above.
