Blacksheep suggsts if there was a problem it would always be fixed immediately-Get a life!

His theory is not supported by the facts that the service bulletins relating to the oil leaks came out in 1984 onwards & almost 20 years later the problem continues & 2-3 AD's have just been issued on this very issue. That's not a real quick fix!!

Also BAe acknowledged to the Australian Senate Inquiry that the modifications would not fix the problem completely, rather reduce the frequency and improve the reliability of the events. This is supported by industry recognition that the oil seals are not as efficient at transient ops/ A design issue!!

Blacksheep- you continue fixing your defects asap & that will be a real good start.
