No more than an engineering degree qualifies anybody to service an aircraft. Or a nursing degree makes a nurse a doctor. The last issue of Aerospace International said that some Universities are now offering JAR-66 maintenance degrees.
A law degree is equivalent to an Engineering degree, doesn't make me a lawyer. Nor does it make the Engineer, Technician, or Lawyer any less important than each other.
Well, maybe we can put the lawyer a couple of rungs further down than people who do something useful. Perhaps Doctors and Nurses are a better analogy.
Oh damn, here we go again.
