Self Policing - A good idea?

The UK government have today admitted that they based their assessment of the strength of the asset/debt ratio by Northern Rock Bank on it's own internal figures. ie. the NRB told the government
Don't worry about a thing, we have checked the numbers and everything is OK
We now know it was crap and my tax is now propping them up.

Why should we trust the analysis of the Manufacturer, whose vested interest is undoubted. I just cannot imagine Sikorky, EC or any manufacturer going to the market place with the bad news 'sorry chaps, all you 92,225,139,L1,L2,365,155 operators have got to stop operating your machines in PC2e and no flights over hostile environments are now permitted'. Can you imagine the chaos...... friightening.

Tell me it's not so Jim. Tell me you guys have your finger on all the stats and they cannot snow us with 'factored index adjustments'.
