I was thinking about prejudice as well here, however this is not a racial culture thing but a corporate culture thing. If an airline improves training and quality assurance pro forma due to a formal threat of being shut down, something is very, very broken. I'm not sure if I'd ever board a KE or OZ airplane again. If the accusations here are true, both should be shut down immediately.
