gee, it's about time. When I worked Mexicana flights, we had a plane fly in with a fuel leak in the engine. Jet A was spewing all over the ramp like from a fire hose. After determining it would be an overnight fix, the maintenance in Mexico City told the flight crew to fly it back with the pax on it, even though the maintenance guys here said it was too dangerous to fly. The situation between us and the flight crew got ugly. The mechanic refused to sign off on it.
