I realize it's not a simple matter, but it seems like a case of an embedded culture of complacency. "We've always done it this way and we've never had a problem."
Money was also probably a big part of it. The proper maintenance of airplanes is expensive. Both the parts and the man hours.
But, if the proper maintenance can't be done right, the aircraft shouldn't fly.
I am interested in y'all's comments. Anyone here know any of the people involved? Or anyone at Collings?
RIP to the passengers and crew, and prayers for the families and friends of those who were in the crash.
Hopefully this results in an admission of problems within the organization, and the organization embracing the changes that need to be made.
