You suggest that 66% of my profession are incompetent, stupid and crooked. I find this very offensive. I work for a large maintenance and aircraft operating company and I would challenge you to ask any of our pilots and customers of their opinion of our standards and integrity. We have about 30 engineers 15 of whom are LAME's and none of them fit your perception, therefore, I suggest, it must be wrong. Of course if you do have problems with airworthiness standards talk to the CAA about it or go to trading standards, they should be able to help. Alternatively why not get yourself an engineers licence and the appropriate type ratings, that shouldn't be a problem for someone like you should it?
May I suggest that the attitude you have displyed towards engineers in this thread is probably the reason why you have problems doing business with them.
