It may not just not be a matter of competence. Aircraft tend not to age well during inactive storage, and the longer they sit the more the problems, particularly if they are stored in humid environments.
No, that is a different issue. We know aircraft do not store well. That is why there are maintenance procedures to help mitigate that risk.

Vilters is is quite clearly stating that most are not correctly stored or maintained, a slight on the engineers.
