VBA, what sort of quality issues are there?

Surely somebody from JHAS is getting in to see the relevant people at VBA to get a review of the output from the client perspective and putting corrective action in place?

VBA have a vested interest in JHAS succeeding, if it fails then the semi LCC is building to their cost base which is anathema to VBA's long term profitability and future. That is obviously detrimental to what VBA want, it is clearly detrimental to JHAS, so wtf is being done to correct it?

Jesus wept, if that facility is closed and the certifications lost then it will never reopen. The only reason it could be turned into an MRO was because it already existed and was operating, the cost of starting again would destroy any business case.

Frick me, this is a serious capability that needs saving. Are you seriously suggesting nobody in either camp is doing anything about it?
