Had JM bothered to consult with the schools they could have had a list of machines that had 'repairs' in a couple of weeks and the others (prob 85%) could have had an inspection.
No the system knows best (The system knows J...S...) about the real world of fixing and records.
The only real problem would have been an unauthorised structural repair that was kept quiet. I think the probability of that is Zero due to the integrity of the schools organisation.
Unless there is CHANGE in the management of the Cadet organisation there will be NO IMPROVEMENT in the clumsy 'crat led' system that has absolutely no idea what they are doing or how to deal with it.
They have taken incompetency to a new 'high' and nothing will improve unless the rot is removed.
So just to check you're saying Cmdt 2FTS should have consulted with the old boys to see if they could remember which tail numbers had undergone repair in the last 32 years, and if they couldn't should just keep flying that one with someone else's kid in it?
Not sure that would look great in court.
