I would agree with that.. the MEL.. CDL..SOP are the governing documents.. if there is a problem with going while you have 2 out of 3 generators then why go with say
one pack inop.. or one bleed inop.. Then we could all do things as we felt..
My copmany too has the the same procedures.. very rarely in some very exceptional circumstances would one consider over riding them. please do not bring up age..
In any case if the maintainence is shoddy why are you in this company anyway. Specially if the company is telling its maintainence personel to do infrequent checks. I would fear for my own life.. Is this what age teaches you?
