Ndegi, that may be true, but the CASA proposal makes no concrete case for the action. It's all hearsay and anecdote and, like I said, no data, serial numbers, model numbers or anything.

All engines have their weak points which need to be managed, but CASA wouldn't dare put blanket restrictions on "Lycoming engines" or "Continental engines" without specifying models, build dates, specs, installations or some other form of identification. Why is it OK to do this to a local manufacturer?

Even if Rod is being blind or belligerent, it's not CASA's job to "teach him a lesson" by wielding a big regulatory stick without just cause.
