Corinas Airways

== Corinas Airways ==
Corinas Airways was founded in 1964 by Mikhail Kusnetsov Sr. in Corinas, Carenzia. It is named after the largest city in Carenzia, Corinas. They have two hubs; at Corinas and in the capital of Citisia. Their logo reminisces the famous Transamerican "TA" logo from the 1980 film "Airplane!" except instead of the T, it is a C. They fly to 25 domestic and 127 international destinations in Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Americas. It is the second-largest airline in Carenzia, only behind the budget carrier Wireframe. They fly 402 aircraft if you include their regional subsidiaries.

=== Safety Issues ===
Corinas Airways has a very good safety system, which means they have only had 7 fatal air crashes in their lifetime. In the 90s, however, there were various complaints about nauseating smoke flowing from the air conditioning vents. That smoke was so bad that in 1994, Corinas Airways Flight 71 almost crashed after takeoff when both the pilot and co-pilot passed out after takeoff. Luckily, the flight engineer's quick thinking saved 302 passengers and thousands on the ground. It was due to faulty maintenance of the AC vents, and a screw came out of the AC system and flew through a cooling unit and jammed it, and the AC system got overheated, starting the smoke. They have since retired that type of aircraft.
==== Accidents and incidents ====
