I suppose I'll add this to the list of reasons I prefer to drive, even if I'm driving a couple states over.

Private equity should be illegal.
Surely private equity never caused terrible accidents in the airline industry before!

That's actually going on even in this country. The outsourcing trend started when the airlines contracted out their maintenance to anti-union states like OK (Tulsa is a big hub for this). Pretty soon, labor-intensive maintenance had left the US entirely for places like El Salvador and China. I'm pretty sure that Delta does most of their "D checks" (where the plane is pretty much disassembled) in El Salvador.
