It seems to be something with the older guys, who I guess after flying for many years, have the god complex about them.
I have nothing but respect for the older guys that have had their licences for so long that the number on the card is 0000002. I do my best to learn as much as I can from them. Case in point with abukaboy just sharing some good advice.
But there is a point where you can stow the attitude.
The point I am trying to make is the fact that this is a KNOWN problem. I don't recall hearing about a 737 wing falling off. Do you?
It the problem is as simple as grease. Why can they not design a safegaurd against it? Is prevention better than cure?
Don't even get me started on africa. Prevention is definately better than cure here....
