Ok, sure, I'll agree with that. Of course it is also most-likely well maintained. But, it just doesn't seem (from someone not in-the-know's point of view) that it could be assured that the airline has maintenance (or indeed pilots/crew) that come up to the high standard that would be expected when flying around the leader of one of the world's richest economies...
It's not that I'm saying he deserves any more special treatment, just that it seems not up to the usual standard, necessarily.
