The FAA fined my old company 1 million for some bull crap. We were a 5 Learjet operation. This fine ain't crap

As a matter of fact, yes, I did just see that. I've been out of the country for the last month. So, would you care to explain?

Honest question, what are the chances of them not imposing them or reducing them?

Not imposing them? I'd say very low. Reducing them? I'd say very high. Settling on a lesser penalty is pretty much the default outcome for this sort of thing.

Don't you have some AD inspection reports to put in the filing cabinet?

Good thing there are those of us that are willing to spend nights on the road, miss family activities and be away from our kids to have an airline that can continue to do business. You may think this was an attack on CCB but it is a poke at all the pilots that allow you to have that job.
