Its been a shocking experience to see FAA abandon their former business model in favor of the self inspection/self certify/largely self regulate practices we see today. Its actually frightening and disheartening to see whats happening.
Think about staycations and day trips to Winnipesaukee!

Shocking indeed. Yet the Part 135 operator I work for has the pleasure of having some 30+ FAA inspectors dedicated solely to monitoring our certificate and they are far from hands off. How they decide to allocate their personnel resources is quite baffling at times!
