Ah, diddums!! Poor old deprived you!!
Read the posts properly and you'll know why the aircraft wasn't certified. Certainly NOT down to '..pure jobsworth..'!
As I posted previously, did you do a full week and then get asked to travel all that way?! Ever heard of human factors?
All this sniping and digging at MA, and the two poor buggers that appear to be the focus of peoples ire, will get you nowhere! I spoke to one of the guys yesterday, and he's decidedly unhappy about things, but far too professional to come here and vent his spleen. Maybe it would be better all round if MA pulled out! Or the guys handed back their approvals! Result...one more static Vulcan!
Realise people, this aircraft is only flying because of the time and effort put in by MA and the team of engineers from there.
