I believe I was the first to mention 'Work to Rule' on this thread. Perhaps a poor choice of words, as subsequently someone has called it childish. What I meant was the practice of cutting corners.
So, we discover that an aircraft has gone flying without a valid 'Before Flight Servicing'
Do we raise a Murphy report, or at least come clean, to ensure it doesn't happen again?
Or do we cover it up? And then it happens again!......and a third time!!
Wallowing around in a cesspit of our own making.
