You should have a talk with PACT AMEA and get them involved,hopefully its not a true rumour as outbase Maintenance is a backbone of the Tech Ops world. "back bone" thats a pretty bold statement. I feel we all need to stick together it's hard to see the other side sometimes. Agreed. While I believe ...

It's been on every VP's to do list for years. Fortunately, common sense has prevailed and we continue to provide the guest experience at small bases that is standard at large ones. It is my sincere hope that tradition continues. I know it has been a burr under Gregg's saddle for years and most of us...

Despite what Gregg might want, it's really up to the VP of TechOps to decide whether or not Tier 3 maintenance is cost effective. The party line thus far has been if we overnight an aircraft there, we will have our own maintenance. (Canadian airports). Of course, anything is subject to annual review.
