Marc Grégoire

Transport committee  If I may, I'll answer those questions, which I did answer, by the way, when you were away. On the first question on SMS, SMS implementation is a cultural change.

Transport committee  Well, let's talk about Air France. In the Air France accident in Toronto last summer there were 10 flight attendants, seven of which were qualified specifically for that aircraft, two of which were qualified flight attendants but not specifically for that aircraft, and one of whi
