It isn't only the high level problems,the safety culture within Squadron & line maintenance is way off kilter.
The engineers have been tacitly encouraged for so long to break & bend the rules that its the norm.Speaking to engineers of all ranks below ENGO,the response in the main is " if we followed procedure it would never get off the ground";So what ! In maintenance the belief has been fostered that 'Can Do' just means get it done.Eng's attitude to the "Can Do Safely" campaign is pretty cynical.
