    Australia could act like a sovereign nation and do the right thing in the face of American interests but would you put money on it?

    Didn’t work out so well for us last time.

    Why does a landing gear component need to be replaced based on flight time? Shouldn’t it be based on number of take-offs and landings?

      Using an average flight length, you can determine after how many flight hours the component needs to be replaced by doing max_flights * avg_flight_length where max_flights is the maximum number of landing + takeoffs the component can handle. 1 landing and 1 takeoff = 1 flight.
