Thank you MP

MP i like the way you keep the threads alive and kicking.

The door sill was not sealed correctly that is a step in the maintenance manual which was not carried out (the vaccum process) that led to the aircraft being grounded. I'm sure that you won't accept that the aircraft was replaced whilst it sat on the deck for 2 days with tech log coupons backing what happened as evidence. I will post the coupons if you like when I get the chance. What would you like? a written signed confession from the Lufthansa Technik ame stating that he bothched up the job?

The concern here is that many other jobs have been done on the cheap with steps left out from the same facility. Good example was the crapper pipe that wasn't connected and dumped turds in the cargo area. Have they stuffed up other processes in more critical systems and more impotantly do you think DC would still be protected if this leads to a burning hole in the ground?
