Re: FLYGTA Rumors
Rumor has it: It is like the 4th engine failure in 1 year, they had 2 under their old AOC. Spoke with one of the boys that use to work for them: Guys skimp on maintenance, don't like stocking spare parts or investing in preventing maintenance because they are "local". They had a door fall off back last year during loading, even after technicians warned them months ahead of cracks in the hinges. Pilots couldn't believe it. It is a can of worms if you think about it and it is a matter of time before someone gets killed, on their none profitable routes. Another typical 703 running on borrowed time thinking they are better then others. They can't make it work IFR, and can't afford good gear. Marc Garneau will shut them down first high profile mistake they make.
