I will agree with you on the overuse clause. I also want to throw another monkey in the wrentch:

Do you think we would have better mx reliability if the planes were assigned to each squadron and each plane had a dedicated crew chief and team? I know it is a throw back to the "old days," as far back as the 90's, but it seems to me that personal accountability and pride goes a lot farther than, "it's not my shift/problem/qual." Just some angry guy out in the woods...
