Oxebridge has been nominated as one of the Top 10 FAA aircraft repair stations for 2023 by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aerospacedefensereview.com\/\">Aerospace &amp; Defense Review Magazine<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re stunned at this, just imagine how shocked I am. Or the FAA, for that matter, since Oxebridge is an ISO consulting firm, and doesn&#8217;t actually repair airplanes. Heck, I don&#8217;t even own a car.<\/p>\n<p>That didn&#8217;t stop the plucky editors at A&amp;D to try and sell me on a vanity article, though. Their email (addressed to Oxebridge employee &#8220;Nicole&#8221; which is yet another shock, since nobody by that name works here) offered to report that we&#8217;ve made the Top 10 FAA Repair Stations for 2023, but only if we paid them $3,000.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-28340\" src=\"https:\/\/www.oxebridge.com\/emma\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/doh.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1062\" height=\"166\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.oxebridge.com\/emma\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/doh.jpg 1062w, https:\/\/www.oxebridge.com\/emma\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/doh-150x23.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.oxebridge.com\/emma\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/doh-200x31.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.oxebridge.com\/emma\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/doh-768x120.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1062px) 100vw, 1062px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I guess if we don&#8217;t pay the $3000 <del>ransom<\/del> advertising fee, we drop down to position 11 in the Top Ten?<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d reach out to someone who actually worked at A&amp;D to see what they say about all this, but they go really, <em><strong>really<\/strong> <\/em>far out of their way to hide the names of their publishers and editors.
