i do not accept that the fleet was in any more danger from an actual safety point of view than it had been in the past.
But, do you know and can you guarantee that the fleet was and would continue to be safe? If yes, then based on the shambolic paper trail which provides no evidence to support your beliefs, I would not let my child fly with you.

The lack of 'incidents' and reports from the users seems to indicate that what was needed was a rapid 'deep' inspection to satisfy any unknown faults in the fleet. As the vast majority of the flying is dual with instructors then the risk factor was very low and the actual response to the problem not well founded.


The lack of incidents is no gauge of future performance, dual or solo is irrelevant.


Your frustration is evident, but haste and corner cutting is how we got here, it is not a way out.
