CNN: "FAA zero tolerance"
You're kidding!
So then when are the B738's with the bogus ring frames going to be grounded, and the OEM pinged for their behaviour? Heck, have only had 3 accidents where the aircraft have broken up at these locations...
The FAA is grossly underfunded and undermanned. They are also politicised, and operate in an environment of continuous uncertainty due to the delights of the USA's "Fort Fumble" senate funding.
