All,
Many if not most of the members of the RRVARC know that I am a captain with over thirty-seven years with American Airlines. I am a voracious news reader and have been following this particular saga since it first broke a few weeks ago. It just keeps getting larger and larger and at some point some of you are likely to be curious enough to start asking me about it. Since I figure that, I figured the free link to this article – Delta, Southwest Search for Jet Engine Parts Sold With Forged Safety Records – in the Wall Street Journal might interest you. What a crazy story. And it is a problem that is going to be very costly to fix.
Be safe,
Phillip
