Near Miss?
(I wasn't going to blog this because it's not that darn interesting, but I wanted to move the previous bad news from the top of the blog--thanks to all for the kind words and phonecalls)
So, between Norway and everywhere else, you will normally fly Scandanavian Airlines. (there isn't much of a market for larger airlines) The biggest part of their fleet are Dash 8's. Those are cool little turboprops.
My coworker in Norway "warned" me that they didn't have the best safety record, so I checked them out before I left the country. Nothing I could do, but it was interesting.
In a nice twist, the NY Times reported that just a couple of weeks after I returned, Scandanavian Airlines announced that they would retire their entire Dash 8 fleet after yet another landing gear failure.
Oops.
