Ta for responding Mike. While we all agree that independendant checking is good and desirable, the thought keeps coming up, what if there _is_ no one else. Say for instance there was a single LAME working in a comparatively remote country town, by himself. Let's call him John. Maybe there are no other LAMEs for 300 km. Does that mean John can't do certain aviation work? (Control cable repairs, bellcrank lubrication, throttle adjustments?) If so, does that mean that aircraft based in that country town have to be flown 600km (round trip) to have some specific maintenance done on them, when there is an appropriately qualified person with a certified workshop in their home town?
