AN LAME , boy will they get upset!! At that stage the F/E's were fiercely independant of almost anything to do with pilots!!
Likewise, scuttlebutt has it that cost cutting left only one guy and a secretary looking after AN 'Tech Services'. Paperwork on the inspections went astray/overlooked, etc while he was away on hols and not found till MUCH later!! Human error with no backup?
G'day
