ARSA Challenges NTSB Repair Station Revocation Order
If the NTSB order is upheld, the FAA will have to rewrite rules for maintenance releases, according to ARSA.

On March 6, the FAA said it had revoked the repair station certificate of Arlington, Texas-based AeroBearings “for improperly overhauling and repairing turbine engine bearings.” AeroBearings appealed the revocation, and an administrative law judge reduced the sanction to an indefinite suspension of the repair station certificate pending compliance with requirements set by the company’s FAA principal operations inspector. However, on May 11, the NTSB reversed that decision and reimposed the revocation.
