Coleman, Not wishing to denegrate individuals working in and for the aviation fraternity in Zimbabwe. Many of them are fine fellows as you say. However if you observed closely over the last two or three months you will have noticed the many incidents due to lacking maintenance or perhaps ultimately, lack of funds.
Avient consists of two company's. One registered in UK and one in Zimbabwe. Not sure to what extent Andy fits into the Zimbabwe one, but it is headed buy Mr Lewiss Kling, and consists a partnership with senior Zimbwean Generals, and that all Avient's aircraft are registered in the Zimbabwean company.
Zimbabweans are generally very good people, but not withstanding the objectivity and professionalism of this inspector that you met - please know that things there work differently now if you want to retain your job and meagre income.
