It kind of blows my mind that these issues have been unresolved for so long. Like, the Hercules and the F22 are not new planes. Even if you absolutely cannot keep a serviceable aircraft out of service for "no reason", there must be at least one where the issue was reported, but the landing gear got fucked or something and it's sitting around being used for parts. Tear that one apart and see if you can find the problem.

I wonder how many millions they've lost in time, time-in-shop, and health benefits payouts for that bullshit. Like, come on and haul one off the front line that you know has the issue and don't let it back out until you've figured it out.
