Unless someone finds the audit report, we can speculate all day long. And if we don't even know that there was a finding, how can you assume it is still open?
There is an outstanding finding. If you are in any doubt then contact the AEI they can explain that this is the case.
When EASA audited a Turkish Part 145 they stopped them from doing the same thing, EASA as you probably know audit non EU part 145's, but when they came across the same thing via the LBA they could not enforce change, but raised a finding, they have to go the EU/EC to enforce change apparently. The fact that they stopped the Turkish Part 145 shows you what EASA thinks of this procedure but to a large extent have become 'powerless' to stop it within EU NAA's...... bonkers.
