34 years have passed since the crash of the Nikko Jumbo aircraft that killed 520 people. Japan Airlines President Yuji Akasaka arrived at the “Ohestaka Ridge” at the crash site just after 1 pm and turned his hand to the memorial monument. President Akasaka said, “The ridge of the Osutaka is a place to return to the starting point of aviation safety, and we want to use it as a lesson for ensuring safety.”

It has been 34 years since the accident, and the percentage of employees who joined the company after the accident, including President Akasaka, has exceeded 95% of the total.

As for this, President Akasaka said, “Efforts for safety must be a never-ending task, and we must always work seriously with a sense of crisis. It is necessary to leave a ridge. "

Alcohol drinking problem

Japan Airlines President Akasaka said about the drinking problems of pilots and flight attendants who were discovered one after another. As I received a warning, I would like to promote measures such as drinking inspections, and to focus on reforming crew consciousness, such as passing on the memory of accidents, to prevent recurrence.
