Thanks for the information. I suspect the urban myth that Qantas hasn’t had an accident comes from how long it has been since they have had one.

The common claim is that Qantas has never had a fatal accident in the jet era - the modern era of air travel. That is true, and it’s one of only a couple of major airlines with that type of record.

But it would only take one to change that - and there have been a fair few near misses.
