The arguments are well taken. But ...
What if you
do have the knowledge and/or the experience to work on the kit, but simply lack the technical information?
Also ... please note where the majority of these requests come from. Who is going to pay for an engineer with a certificate to travel out there?
And one last thought:- who benefits from having equipment laying around for months (years), quietly deteriorating away, for the want of (what is often) a simple repair?
