I'm very shocked.....
I'm very shocked that people sell bogus parts thus endangering lives...we don't have that problem here in the USA but I don't doubt it's happened. If I were to do it all over again I wouldn't become a pilot but again one cannot predict what the future would hold. I enjoyed my flying years and look forward to future flying jobs, but as for now I have to put food on the table. Thanks for all the replies, the artical was enlightening and I look forward to reading more!
Cheers!
