this would be a good reason to avoid this carrier
Better to say a “lack of money, training and honesty”! When you are 600’ low (200’asl) ) at 2.5 miles from the runway on an ILS (Hong Kong) and it takes a EGPWS warning to get your attention! This carrier is headed for a catastrophe!
I will remember that next time I am down that way... 1 Airline off my List
Not enough money equals reduced safety ...
This is one way of preparing to handover the operations to private operators and FIs.
I think you will find it is going the other way
Well that's 15 planes they don't have to worry about crashing.
