(www.flightglobal.com) IATA’s bid to slash the commercial air transport accident rate for Western-built aircraft has suffered a setback after losses in Indonesia and Africa drove the figure up by 15% last year.

The organisation set a target to reduce the 2006 figure of 0.65 hull losses per million flights to just 0.49 in 2008.
