You still not told us all what aviation qualifications you have or how many days this year you spent in a maintenance shop.
Does it really matter? 71 years ago a man trained as a biologist and paleontologist who probably never laid a spanner on an aircraft did more for rational maintence and data based military operations than all the LAMES and aviation rulemakers put together.

He improved aircraft availability by 60%, surprise attacks on submarines by 30% and submarine kill rates by 700%. God knows how much money he saved the military from wasting.

His name was Conrad Waddington. Look up his story. It's very enlightening.

I have a dream............ LAMEs and CASA will come together and produce data based maintence.

Currently most LAMEs know half the stuff they do is BS but don't change anything because by law they can't and CASA won't change anything because ????????? (Someone help out here)
