WARNING:Aircraft Maintenance Crisis: QA Expert Daryl Guberman Warns of A&P Mechanic Shortages Endangering Passenger Safety

WASHINGTON - Amzeal -- Daryl Guberman, a 40+ year quality expert in aerospace, medical, materials, and other industries, is raising urgent concerns over the growing shortage of Airframe and Powerplant (A&P) mechanics in the aviation industry. As airlines continue to struggle with maintenance workforce shortages, the risk to passenger safety increases significantly.

The Critical Role of A&P Mechanics in Aircraft Safety

A&P (Aircraft Power Plant) mechanics are responsible for inspecting, maintaining, and repairing commercial aircraft to ensure their airworthiness. For an aircraft like the Boeing 737, mechanics are required at multiple levels of maintenance, including:

• Routine Turnaround Maintenance: 2-5 mechanics for pre-flight, post-flight, and minor servicing.
• Line Maintenance (Daily & Weekly Checks): 6-10 mechanics per shift.
• A Checks (Every 400-600 Flight Hours): 6-12 mechanics per aircraft.
• C Checks (Every 18-24 Months): 20-30 mechanics per aircraft.
• D Check (Heavy Maintenance, Every 6-10 Years): 50-100+ mechanics working for weeks.

Additionally, specialized powerplant (engine) mechanics are required for in-depth engine maintenance, with 10-30 mechanics needed per aircraft for major overhauls.

Airline Mechanic Shortages: A Growing Public Safety Risk

The aviation industry is experiencing a severe shortage of A&P mechanics, caused by:

• An Aging Workforce – A large percentage of experienced mechanics are retiring, with too few trainees entering the field.
• Lack of Training Pipelines – FAA regulations require extensive training, but the industry is not producing enough certified A&P mechanics to meet demand.
• Increased Workloads & Fatigue – Fewer mechanics mean longer hours, increasing the risk of maintenance errors.
• Outsourcing to Unregulated Facilities – Some airlines rely on third-party maintenance providers that may not meet strict U.S. safety standards.

The combination of Boeing's 22-year lapse in on-site supplier auditing and the current shortage of A&P mechanics creates a perfect storm for potential aviation disasters. Daryl Guberman emphasizes, "I don't know where, I don't know when, but I definitely know the 'why' and the how." This situation demands immediate attention to prevent catastrophic consequences.

A recent article highlights that the shortage of skilled aircraft mechanics is more than a staffing issue—it's a public safety crisis.  https://www.prlog.org/13051547-qa-expert-daryl-guberman-exposes-22-years-of-boeings-on-site-audit-relinquishment-and-faa-delegation-scandal.html

Industry Experts Warn of Safety Consequences

A recent report emphasizes that the mechanic shortage is not just a staffing issue, but a public safety crisis.   As airlines attempt to fill gaps, rushed maintenance, skipped inspections, and unqualified personnel handling critical repairs can result in engine failures, hydraulic issues, structural weaknesses, and potentially catastrophic crashes.

Daryl Guberman Calls for Immediate Action

Daryl Guberman, known for his work in exposing conflicts of interest, regulatory failures, and lapses in quality assurance, urges the aviation industry to take immediate corrective action:

1.          Invest in A&P Mechanic Training Programs – Airlines and regulatory bodies must expand training opportunities to increase the number of qualified mechanics.

2.          Enforce Strict Oversight of Maintenance Facilities – Regulators must ensure that outsourced maintenance adheres to the same safety standards as in-house airline facilities.

Standing Up at Capitol Hill

On April 17, 2024, Guberman made a bold stand by attending the DHS Subcommittee Whistleblower Meeting on Capitol Hill. While news media outlets interviewed him, they refused to air his critical points about Boeing relinquishing on-site audits for 22 years or the FAA's delegation of regulatory authority ODA –(Organization Designation Authorization). https://www.avweb.com/news/faa-grants-boeing-more-autonomy-on-certification/  This continued media blackout leaves the public uninformed about issues that directly impact aviation safety. https://www.newstribune.com/photos/2024/apr/18/3749044/
