I've noticed this- even Manila is increasingly a location for this sort of maintenance work.
I think there should be a place where we as customers can easily see where carriers we may be considering are maintaining their planes and if they have appropriate regulation and oversight for that work.
- intopieces 11y agoWhat would consumers do with this data? It doesn't appear that this is illegal. What recourse do we have against this?

- intopieces 11y agoI'm not sure many consumers have much choice on the matter. Most just go for whatever is cheapest.
- johnchristopher 11y agoBut would they go for the cheapest if it was the most insecure and that information clearly presented when booking flights ? I believe they at least could and would balance the risks then. Of course I agree we all have a different economic power (I, for one, have never set foot on a plane) but I have the feeling most of the HN crowd could discriminate between companies.
- JshWright 11y agoWhat data are you referring to? Why would you need to take any recourse?
- notahacker 11y agoI used to sell a database that did that (to a more limited extent than you might imagine), if you have over $10k to spare... All the facilities used by airlines have appropriate regulation. That's why their aircraft are permitted to fly.
