This may be entirely the case. I think we have all tried to factor in the element of experience. But do you see this as preventing them from getting cert. or more like rationale as to why it is taking so long.

I think that believing a plane be in the air at year end even a couple of weeks ago is a stretch. Let's be real. There is only one goal. Manual approvals. Are your thoughts inclusive of the totality of the process? Or are they focused on the manuals.

The only thing I think we all care about is getting the manuals completed and approved. Even if their hands are being held. Which is not uncommon in any industry.

The question is what feedback are you getting that gives insight into that step. Do you know if the FAA is engaged or leaving them behind....
