It'd be interesting to see. I certainly try to fly Quantas to Australia (born there but don't live there currently) whenever possible due to their practically spotless safety record. I think it's changing slightly now, but they used to replace parts that were in such good condition they could and did sell them onto other airlines. As far as I'm aware they've yet to have a plane crash either.
