Can you provide more context? Why would this help?

  For example in the national flag carrier I know (I used to work 5 years in that sector and I am still a licensed pilot) many people were hired and appointed in positions based on political influence, not on competence. It happens less in private companies.

    But do we have evidence that privately owned airlines have a smaller record of accidents and incidents than those not?

      Hard to compare, because not many countries have at the same time government owned airliners and private. In the case I know, the record is flawless for private companies (zero accidents) and 2 crashes for the flag carrier (a relative was part of the crew in one crash). I would not make a general statement based on a single country, but looking for airplane crashes in the past 20 years most involved government owned companies.
