Princess - if you are for real then the main effect of MAA is a massive increase in staff-work which still doesn't address the problems of airworthiness.
If an airworthiness issue is highlighted then either money has to be spent to fix it so the risk is reduced to ALARP, or someone has to have the cojones to accept that risk.
The new MAA means that if a senior officer has the cojones to accept the risk (as he did in the past), he will now find himself in court if something goes wrong - strangely that is a fairly unpalatable choice.
Now the airworthiness issues are passed up and down the chain of command, bounced back by the various PTs, placed on ever more meaningless lists of risk and mired in red-tape.
So the actual process of getting anything done about aircraft faults has not improved one jot - in fact it would seem that the very worry of having to address issues on some platforms has meant they have been removed from service under the guise of SDR.
Staff officers find themselves juggling the lists of faults and prioritising them in a way that the actual operators certainly wouldn't agree with.
All in all MAA promised a lot but doesn't seem to have delivered anything.
