Personally this sucks. There are plenty of legal issues still to be brought
up with the inspector general's office regarding the matter (Is all the work
that these mechanics signed off in the past 9 years now invalid?). I post
about it in case any affected persons may not have received their letter.

As one who recently went through 2 years of school full time and a
good deal of personal expense to obtain my A&P certificate, please
excuse me if I fail to feel any sympathy for those mechanics. They
tried to skirt the system and get by on the cheap, and ended up
getting exactly what they paid for. The FAA, for all their faults,
was gracious in letting them re-test at all.

The people I feel sorry for are the aircraft owners who have the
signatures of said mechanics now gracing their logbooks, since as you
said, that calls into question the validity of any work they approved.
