ITheir ability to produce "intelligent" (to them) regulations like "Used parts must be accompanied by a Certificate stating they are new" is exceeded only by....their ability to pretend that Qantas has never had an accident.
I've only ever heard the claim that Quantas has never suffered a fatal accident involving a jet airliner. I actually don't know if that's true or not.

If there were no fatalities, then they haven't had a fatality, maybe, other than medical? Or not?
Good record, anyway!
I worked for one company on an oil project whose manager declared "there will be no accidents on this project" this of course meant no accidents were reported, not even minor ones. A ridiculous and dangerous attitude to have.Non fatal accidents and incidents are the warning of a big one coming up

It was the client that said it, to take action would mean prosecuting your client, if anything did happen (actually many things did happen but were not reported) then the claim would be against the constructor not the client. The client basks in the glory of a project that is accident free while the constructor fiddles the books and takes the risk. All is well until there is a serious accident and then people go to jail.I'm not a H+S guy, but I deal with them on a regular basis. Had something happened on that project that had led to the involvement of the HSE then the excrement would surely have hit the rotating ventilator. Like many things, it's all good until it goes wrong, whereupon it isn't

And/or receive a hefty fine. The HSE seem quite keen on fines

According to Qantas the Bangkok accident was only an incident.
