Here's a verse for those who know some Russian:
Bystro, nadyozhno i bez xlopot
Vas poxoronit Aeroflot.
Seriously, it's not as bad as it used to be. The bad ones are mostly the
Tu-154. The Il-86 is in fact one of the world's most safe planes
crashwise (I think the recent crash in Iran was the first in 20 if not
30 years).
But BA is much better anyway ;-)
