Hello aquamon
I think you are mising the point entirely.
We (me and the fellow pilots) have an excellent relationship with our AMO. The facts I have stated here I got from our engineers. At no stage have I tried to tell them how to do their job, or questioned their abilities. I have merely related the information I gathered from them. In the meantime they are just as perplexed and are trying (nearly) daily to find a solution. They are aware of my postings here, by the way ....
I further resent your comment, that I dont know the systems. I have in excess of 1000 hrs on king airs and proud myself (thanks to our engineers) on my knowledge of the aircraft.
I think I have gathered the information I wanted using this forum. This will be my last post here.
I thank all who had helpfull and amusing comments. My eternal respect to engineers who manage to keep aircraft flying, sometimes under harrowing circumstances.
