What I don't understand and maybe Mav can help me out is why our planes always carry MEL's when they almost always overnight in a maintenance base.

Secondly, I don't care how many personnel have been hired into maintenance positions, I care about the job getting done.

Third but not even close to final, how the hell is it that I find about increased scrutiny from Google long before Mav tells me the union is making a big deal over nothing? Bolts working their way lose on primary flight controls is far from nothing to see here. And unlike your earlier emails, two more planes had elevator issues and one had an aileron issue.

If that's what you think is minor, I hope I never see what you would call major.
