"If I don't trust a plane then it is definitely after maintenance work has been carried out!"

I find the above statement rather upseting.
I have worked within the aircraft industry for a number of years and can honestly say that the aircraft leave there maintenance facility, in the places I have worked in Europe, in a far more serviceable condition than when they arrived. As for standards in 'far away places' being worse then its up to the 'users' ie pilots and crew to make a stand and stop the increasing use of these dubious facility's by the airlines purse holders just to save a few dollars.
