Adam Air has protested the decision to ground its six Boeing 737-300s, almost a third of its fleet, describing it as "harsh punishment".
what?!? one of your aircraft has just split down the middle, after losing another aircraft earlier this year. this is real "Iraqi Information Minister" PR- 'our aircaft are fine, there's nothing wrong with our aircraft, there are no accidents, this is a completely normal characteristic of this aircraft'

A normal characteristic, huh? Haven't seen it anywhere before though!

Personally I don't kjnow why anywone would fly with these guys. There are plenty of low-cost airlines with impressive safety records though.

Yeah.......Kinda makes boeing look a litlle bit bad for a second, until you remember that a 737 takes off or lands every 4 seconds......so theres alot, to say the least. Adam air have got some bad problems with their maintenece I'd say. (and thats being very mild) :D
