So if an aircraft has been signed off “considered to be airworthy at the time of the review”, let's say 1 April, this need no longer be the case on 2 April when
Airworthiness is the responsibility of the operator.
This may well be
Scandalous, and, I expect, would not stand up in court
However, once I have been killed in a non-airworthy aircraft it will be a matter of extreme indifference to me whether the case stands up in court.
If our regulator is not prepared to take action then maybe the time has come to restrict PPLs to aero engineers, fully qualified to sign off the ARC.
