So people riding on the back of a lorry unsecured is acceptable then?
Working at height without poper staging which has hand/safety rails is acceptable then?
And people standing halfway underneath the Rotor Disc during Start is acceptable then?
I say bollocks!
The company which was featured in the Video provides Commercial Air Transport! We are not talking about some Shaddy General Aviation Garage!
Even the Ukraine is not a Member State of EASA, but they have Aggrements with EASA which means they should work to same high standards as an EASA Member.
As Part145 Company when you service more than 1 Aircraft you need to have ALL Aircraft Parts tagged/labeled and clearly seperated from each other, the same goes for Spares!
And when it comes to installing or removing Critical Parts like a Main Rotor Mast assembly you need a more precise lifiting device than a hydraulic arm on the back of a lorry as these have a tendency to be rough as f*ck.
Similar thing with the Tailboom which again is a Critical Part and needs to be in a Jig to support it during installation / removing as it needs to be fitted stress free and there are Alignment checks required afterwards! (same goes for the MGB/Mast Assembly)
All this is Engineering 101, the Basics!
And Maintenance Manuals have to be on the shop floor beside the Aircraft and not hidden away in some Office, these are for the Engineers to be used!
Also there has to be a Tool Control in place, especially when you don't have enough Tools to seperate them for each Maintenace Bay/Dock!
To me it looked like they have
NO Quality Control and Health and Safety at all.
That's why this Video is the worst Advertisement for this Touring Operator!
