Like I've said a million times, you can't pay people to give a shit. That's precisely why I never roll the dice with things I hold dearly. Hell, now that I think of it, you've seen how I suffer playing slots! It all fits.


edit: something else I just considered... Given the choice, I'd gladly pay a certified A&P mechanic with zero experience on this engine than I would any dealer shop. This shit rarely happens with aircraft, and heads roll when it does. If we were truly concerned about safety over litigation, that's how we would treat automotive service.
