FAA safety oversight of aircraft repairs faulted
The government's oversight of hundreds of domestic and overseas repair stations that service U.S. airliners is ineffective and doesn't target the factors most likely to present safety risks, the Department of Transportation's inspector general said Monday.

Typical US government allowing laws to be passed with no teeth. In other words no funding to enforce the laws become laws that are useless and serve no purpose.
This is not what we didn't know...yet, most have known that this 3rd world sloppy approach to proper airline maint.....is not acceptable.
We can only hope that the U.S. Comte on trans is in the loop here
too along with the Mr. Huerta and his crew.
Be safe!

Sounds like 559 mini vacations a year. Lol
each with about two hours of 'work' to justify the expense.

Very disappointing group of well paid people.
Don't get me started on Southwest's use of illegal immigrant labor and people that can't even read English manuals! WFAA in Dallas did a story on that years ago. They should be fined, but our ICE director doesn't give 2 craps about her job.
