Extended data:

Since last year, the security situation of China Southern Airlines has been poor, and the leaders have not fully understood the situation and are blindly optimistic and complacent. They did not take fundamental measures to reverse the passive situation, did not properly handle the relationship between safety and development, efficiency and other work, and did not invest enough energy in safety.

There are too many planes imported by the company, too many bunks, scattered layout, and the management work can't keep up, which is an important reason for the decline of the technical quality of flight personnel. After the adjustment of the leadership of Shenzhen Company last year, the work was not strong enough, and the existing security risks could not be resolved decisively in time.
