Sharing part of the ASA crew lounge in ATL and rumor was sharing part of the ASA hangar in ATL but mgmt put damage control on that. We also have very few parts on hand for the 7/9s that are left to perform heavy mx and c-checks. Oh and this place is falling apart. Something appears to be afoot
That's the way we do things here when it comes to MX. A lot better than the old way. Not to sound like a kool aid drinker but that's one of the reasons our numbers are good. In some stations they're usually waiting at the gate even if the plane is going to sit for a few hours. They rather catch an issue early. They're usually also waiting for you if you call in a problem in flight.
