I have to report that it is going well at the present, LAE's are less stressed out and all the pressure is on the tech control planner. I have done 2 weeks as the "Ramp Rat" debriefing arriving aircraft, other LAE's have been involved in addressing ADD's
and major incoming snags. If I have any reservations it is that no one is in charge of engineering activities on the aircraft except the poor "old" planner in the tech control. Regarding the statement, Big Airways who cares, given the new (JAR66)world if it works it's coming your way. Believe me I was a sceptic before it all happened. But it seems to work just fine.
