It doesn’t really matter who I work for. Suffice to say it’s concerning that any Australian RPT jet operator is still entrenched in the good ol’ GA mantra of ‘it says you can go so you should’. This also goes beyond just APUs, how many deferred items are airborne as we speak, and how many of those are occurring simply because airlines prefer to prioritise profit over maintenance? The company I work for is known for not-so gently coercing the Captain into accepting a defect just because the MEL suggests you can.
