Sunfish: We cater for the odd bird strike, not 200+ airliners needing four overhauled engines at five minutes notice. Please try and understand that that is the logistical nightmare behind the need for regulation and prohibition.
It is NOT the job of the Regulator to regulate on issues of commercial judgement, which this is. Safety - yes. Logistics - no.
