Eastern and their ilk are famous for maximizing profits at all costs, ultimately the FAA and DoD recognize this and act accordingly
The Peruvian MRO may have the bad reputation. But the the DQ Individual is responsible for accepting an aircraft with excessive write ups. Although its not uncommon for an aircraft to be accepted with write ups that are repaired at home base with the MRO being billed, by the carrier, for labor.

Perhaps John does not.

Perhaps John has no connection to Eastern.

To summarize Eastern 3.0 is dead in the water.

Happy to see that that first DOD international flight in a while went so well. Smart, too, to choose a plane so well-equipped that it could fly above FL280.

Here’s another one:

Eastern Airlines Boeing 767-300, registration N703KW performing flight 2D-3160 from Shannon (Ireland) to Savannah Hunter Air Force Base,GA (USA) with 140 people on board, was enroute at FL280 in Gander Oceanic Airspace about 380nm northnortheast of Goose Bay,NL (Canada) when the crew reported an electrical burning/overheating odour in the cockpit and requested to divert to Goose Bay. The aircraft landed safely on Goose Bay's runway 26 about one hour later.

The Canadian TSB reported maintenance found the left hand nav display's cooling duct clogged with dust and debris causing arcing. After cleaning the duct the aircraft was returned to service.

Why is there a 767-200 parked in Fargo ND for so long?
