Is the new Chinese COMAC C919 aircraft really lucky or what? They launch the international sales just about the same time the B737-MAX is going thru the worst scrutiny investigation. Is it possible the issues at Boeing were due to just not geed but foreign interest?
I would say it is more Luck. Got to go inside of one of those planes when it was on a Demo tour and our company was looking at it. did not go with it. It was ok and spacious, but I just did not feel the quality and we ended up not going with it.
Someone suggested that “ New Hire Are to blame”
Well, in my logical view Point, New hires are closely Monitored, observed , followed and Assisted.
I do not believe That the new Hires Would have full Access to the Aircraft without being able to have experience.
Eventually, The focus should be on The Supervisors And Senior Mechanics.
Seriously, the Revision And the Analysis of an Aircraft is crucial.
One must be a leader and a follower and a follower or a leader.
If a horse is not saddled properly, “ the rider May fall of the Horse “

"New hires are closely Monitored" - Not at South West... Very minimal training, and you will be lucky to get that if you get on someones crap list! I used to work there, I was a lucky one... I was already trained on the plane with a decades of experience... They did not meet my standards of doing maintenance and I left. Being asked to sign things off that I did not feel was correct, I am not goin going to do it... They have a bad work environment for Maintenance!
The 37’s Continued rise of Drama.
Eventually, The Airline Mechanics Are Responsible To ensure that the Aircraft is ready for service.
Only The Airline Mechanics are holders of logs and Service history of Their Aircraft’s , we don’t know if the Engine in question was Serviced prior to the Incident or had parts replaced.
