Welcome to the post-CAIB "need more government inspectors" world.

...Jorge, this might be the one time I've ever disagreed with you, but
I'd rather see more inspectors actually doing the job properly than
something go wrong because a step was missed.

On the other hand, we *did* have that issue last mission where the
White Room had a panel that wasn't lashed down properly prior to arm
swingback, and there were several inspectors then as well...


If more inspectors actually assured better quality I might agree.

How many people signed off on the thing that ended up going clunk in the
engine compartment over a decade ago?
