Addressing the security threat at repair stations
One of the cornerstones of aviation is trust.

One of the cornerstones of aviation is trust. Because it has been part of our foundation for so long, we don’t even think about it; it is just there. The rules that we operate under also assume that all airmen will be trustworthy individuals and will follow both the published rules and the spirit and intent of those rules. I think the definition of “trust” in the Merriam-Webster online dictionary captures this well: “assured reliance on the character, ability, strength or truth of someone or something–one in which confidence is placed.”
