Genghis,you are great!...Please let me wallow in your greatness,Aeng[Hons],Beng[Hons],Ceng[Even More Hons]!
AshEng,I felt your post was well worded and carefully thought out.
Our friend Genghis is correct in saying[I think this is what he is saying amongst all of his high-and-mighty,I'm great,look at me,let's look down upon anyone without copious amounts of letters after their name attitude] that everyone has a place to play in the industry of keeping our a/c flying safely.
I rely on design engineer's every day of the week.Without their input,the work I carry out IAW the MM is worthless.However,design engineers also rely on us,the certifying 'engineer','technician',minion, etc....to carry out that said work,IAW what the design engineer intended.If we don't do that then all your work is pointless.
All us lower life forms such as LAME,Technician,Fitter recognise that you do an important job.As you imply,I could not do your job,but I ask the question how you would cope,given a 30-40 min turnaround,with a serious defect written in the Tech-Log?Would you be able to action/interperet [spelling?] [but i'm sure YOU would have known how to spell it!!!] your own design information with regard to despatching the aeroplane/fixing the aeroplane or not?
All the best,
Eng122,[I don't feel i'm able to be 123 anymore!!]
