Believe me: Instead, I'll take an aging 747 any day. Especially one operated by an airline that has a long trajectory with no accident that resulted in a single death or an airplane being written off.Originally posted by air nz DC10 View Post

ATR'S have gone down too
Yes I agree with you too Gab HA HA . There's being a few accident with these type aircraft as well. The 747B ageing or new is proven around the world to be the most safest wide bodied jet in it's history of flying according to many journalist yet some journalist bullshit to the public about aircraft in service. But that's what their paid to do mate. Take careComment

I'd think today the safest widebody jet family would be the 777 and A340, closely followed by the 767 (not counting the 787 which has not been in service long enough to figure in a list like that). I hope I got those facts straight.
Hmmmmm... after only 3 posts, we're already off-topic...

Recently, quite a few carriers are opting for the ATR for their future turbo-prop fleet. In the Caribbean - both Caribbean Airlines and LIAT (both long-time Dash-8 operators) are current in their transitions.
Is there an updated version of the Dash-8 line being produced/being considered in lieu of the increased competition coming from the ATR-42/72-600?Whatever is necessary, is never unwise.Comment
