Well, their idea of maintaining the IRS is rumoured to be: Take it out. Clean the ports, and plug it back in, if the thing runs, it's maintained... LOL forget calibration.

PK-KKC had a "spectacular" fright the other week, reported "panels went dead" and rtb-ed. In less than ideal visibility, it made a slip & dive to the runway resulting in a fast landing and one of the tyres shed a piece of rubber that was reported by a later flight, prompting runway closure for a little while. A little inquiring a little further, it appears that there was more than just "panels going blank".

Anyways, PK-KKM just came in within the last 10 days from South America, let's see how long this one lasts before something goes wrong.

Yeeha, Owned by a Mr. Adam and his "Adam's Family" + the family of the speaker of parliament. Finances are run by a Mrs. Ang who has been quoted "Forget the pax complaints, fill the hold with cargo at all cost"...

fdr, Well, it has been tried by others to no avail, they ended up with a lawsuit on their hands. Knowing Indo politics, thanks for the offer anyways...
