Re: Insanely damning
I won't deny the funding problems the FAA had (and still has), but I don't think "sub-contracting" was the only (or even correct) solution. The correct solution would have been to halt (or at least seriously slow down) certification and tell the customers and their employees to complain to Congress.
And yes, a large part of the blame for this whole clusterfuck lies with Congress.
