Well said Bus 429
The comment of the CAA closeing fls is frightning, at the moment the UK is getting worried about the shortage of engineers, but two major hangers like FLS hold a lot of trained /qualified men put these in the market and I think pay talks won`t have the bite they have at the moment.
Do you think the CAA have the B*lls to remove their operation when at least 2 large operators would be very badly effected (maintance AOC for:- Airtours A320 and Easy jet 737 are in their hands.)I think not!!!
Growler, KP states that when he was working with you he was not a surporter of 25 min turnrounds, claims that there are sevral pages / items to be looked at in an arrival/departure check. BUS 429 did state to do it properly was knackering ,part of human factors maybe?
