wally150driver Certificates/Ratings/Crew Stations: 5. "RE: Flying with MEL items" 05-04-03, 18:55z  >By the way who do you work for? What do you do with MEL's? > >Mark Hi Mark, I thought sure that saying I am in Memphis and work for an overnight Express package delivery service might have given it away but maybe not. I don't know much about the delivery side but I think if they can get it to us by 10pm for most small stuff, we can have it delivered just about anywhere in the cont. US by 9am the next day. I mostly help the mechanics straighten out IPC, Maint. Manual, and wiring issues on our planes. My involvement with MEL issues is mostly effectivity related although sometimes I coordinate with the FAA on broken/missing components. Our office is staffed 24/7 and we do what we can to help get a plane on delay (ready to depart) moving. Mostly it is looking up drawings and helping with spare parts. The structures guys in my group are always helping with repairs in B checks or damage. Our planes are always getting dinged up, no matter how carefull the ground crews are. I get calls from various places in the US, Alaska, Hawaii, China, Taiwan and onc in a while, South America. Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
