Hot Dog,

the issue is not so much about the standards of all asian MRO's. Rather, it is about the standards of an MRO that has probably been recently expanded to accommodate 3rd party work.

It is whether that MRO has adequate experienced people on hand to do a good job or have they just rounded up bodies to get the job done. WHO WOULD KNOW!!

I believe that the only MRO's that have spare capacity are those doing D checks on freighters where the standard is most definitely lower.

If QF is to send D checks to one of these MRO's then it wont matter how much accreditation they have and a few Q.C. inspectors won't really have much impact.

Hot Dog you're probably lucky that you have retired!!
