Guys ,
All aircraft flying from or to the UK regardless of where they are from have to comply with CAA regulations , no aircraft is allowed to fly over british airspace without complying , that is from the nation airlines to minor aircraft.
so you should be just as safe in a russian built bulkan tu154 built in the 1960s as a brand new aircraft from one of our national airlines.
and just for the record , the US has the oldest airline fleets on average in the world.

Have not flown with them myself, but have heard they now have turbo engines which consist of an elastic band !!re: Balkan Airways planes
Ever been on a 'Wallis Arnord' coach.... back at school when you went on a trip to the lakes..... all brown/orange check patterned with those cigarette stub-out plates on the backs of the seats and a elasticated net magazine holder underneath it.
Right...... Balkan airlines are like this only with wicker wings and a slightly more drunken, fat driver/pilot.
All together now.....' We're all going on a....Balkan holiday..........no more workin' for a week or two.........fun and laughter ...
