i have seen the workmanship of CSA,very high quality and a very flexible workforce,they can do anything that any UK maint base can do,but also at a fraction of the cost of say FLS.
The average wage of a licenced engineer there is 600pounds a month almost a third of a FLS equilent,with no real union hassles that FLS have, and had in the past.
the future of our industry as you say will be in the former eastern block and asia,just like shipbuilding,cars,motorbikes and the rest.
AIR BERLIN and TRANSAVIA have moved most of there heavy c-checks overthere now.
