I was in aviation maintenance for 37 years, 16 years as a mechanic with hands on turbine engine components that flew on a regular basis. Flight crew safety was always in the back of my mind. The constant concern, diligence and stress over that time may have actually taken a bit of time off my life but I can safely say that nobody died because of my negligence.
Prayers for the victims of this tragedy...including Baldwin and this young lady that may be involved.
I know the stress of flight-line safety. Had a toolbox roll and spill in the grass one time. The subsequent search for a missing #2 Philips bit took hours and involved anyone with spare time. They were getting ready to pull the seats and ground the jet when I got an idea of where the bit was. Lodged in a T.O. I checked out separately, and turned in right before the tool was discovered missing.
