Does that mean that Europe does better maintenance on ageing aircraft. Common Twitcher - thats the double standards I am talkng about. Avients planes are museum pieces, their brothers and sisters have long ago been put to pasture.
You are obviously close to this bunch and it is expected and commendable that you stand up for them.
As for the rest of the point, surf the web and see the extent of Mr Smith's collusion with the Kinshasa and Zimbabwean governments during the Congolese Civil War. In the process he aided and abetted the killing and maiming of millions of Congolese woman and children. And this in collusion with one of the most despicable despot regimes in Africa who themselves are equally guilty of oppressing the Zimbabean people. Ask him about his aviation workshops in Bulawayo - and what kind of conversions and maintainance they were doing there in co-opration with the ZAF.
As for another point; other people who did much less wrong are being held accountable before the war crimes court in the Hague. Why is this guy avaoiding accountability - because he is European?
