Romulus, the problem stems from the fact that John Holland owned by Leightons is a construction company and JHAS is managed by people with a construction / infrastructure industry mentality. Leightons and John Holland only entered the Aviation MRO Industry for a quick dollar and didn't do enough to utilise industry expertise and knowledge from those who have worked and Managed in the Aviation MRO Industry. Senior Management given the role to run JHAS at its inception were ignorant, stubborn and refused to listen to the workers and middle level Managers who were desperate to make the business a long term success. John Holland and Leightons have always had a reputation for doing things their way with no room for input from their employees. I doubt anything has changed.
