It is a darn weird world out there, where FAA employees eventually went on strike, due to the pressure they were exposed to, from manufacturers and their own boss, who should support the employees, not the other way round.
And it is the politicians who have forced the FAA to turn over the control of the certification to the interested party/parties, believing that commerce has no interest in cutting corners, even if they can without being found out.
Why not let China super-bureaucrats take over, can’t get much worse, can it?!
