As an A/P mechanic going on 16 years, I've worked on the largest and most complex aircraft in the world. But the reality of the industry can be surprising and even scary. I talk about the toxic and unsafe culture that aircraft mechanics REALLY deal with. The very things that airlines and aviation companies DON'T want you to know. Prepare yourself. The rabbit hole goes deep. Join me as I give you an inside look into the GOOD the BAD and the UGLY of Aviation Maintenance.

2022's first expose'- The Saga of N874AA

Hello and welcome to this, 2022's first expose' podcast! We're talking about the saga of N874AA (I refer to it in the show as "Nine874”) An ex- AA 727 that was donated to the museum of flight in Seattle, WA & ended up in the hands of a museum located in Missouri. It was ultimately scrapped in 2021. But it’s not the scrapping of the aircraft which I found interesting, it's the circumstances surrounding the scrapping of the aircraft which is right up the alley of 'shady'. And yes, it includes some aircraft maintenance 'stuff' too! Strap in and hold on, another great expose' episode coming at you! **Court documentation: https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/21111558-antares-pdf The 'infamous' Scot Spencer: https://www.travelweekly.com/Travel-News/Government/DOT-approves-permanent-ban-on-Scot-Spencer-from-aviation-biz Relevant articles: https://www.flyingmag.com/727-scrapper-ahm/ , https://www.aviationpros.com/aircraft/news/21247240/absolutely-tragic-the-grisly-demolition-at-seattles-boeing-field-of-an-old-727 , https://www.sbsun.com/2018/05/10/san-bernardino-international-airport-criminal-case-never-got-off-the-runway/ The NEW podcast website:(the original) The Good the Bad and the Ugly: The Aviation Maintenance Industry – Raw and unscripted! – Aviation, Aircraft mechanic, Aviation Maintenance (wordpress.com) Subscribe & share!
