In Canada the ferry permit must be signed by a mechanic who has

In the U.S. its hard to get a ferry permit for "elevator smashed,
reskinned in the field, structural repair done as well".


Go find a copy of the movie Long Props, Big Rocks 2. Just came out not
too long ago. See what they jury rigged together and flew out.
