Without explicit performance signals built into the legislation or an obvious  implicit set of signals to measure performance, all institutions will gravitate towards behavior that provides personal r...

The class 5 certificate is still born because it still requires a GP to sign off on a medical assessment before you are allowed to self assess. I can just imagine how many GP's will be eager to sig...

Let me get this straight; October 2013 - DAS says nix piston engined sling work. November 2013 - As a component of the project, a CASA risk workshop on crocodile egg collection using HEC was held o...

Catherine King MP - Minister for Qantas.

Rewad the Qatar submission; Qatar had endorsements from the State Premiers of Queensland, West Australia, South Australia and Victoria, but not NSW. Go figure. Qatar made the mistake of disproportiona...

The. Elephant in the room, since at least 1975, is the preservation by Qantas of Sydney's position as the dominant international gateway to Australia because this status gives Sydney an inordinate sha...

.......and her next act will be to cancel any changes in medical certifications, permit CASA to crush what's left of GA and suppress recreational aviation unless it's battery powered.

I note that Mr. Buckley has complained about CASA'S complaints commissioner to the CASA Board over the treatment of alleged assault allegations against him. Could someone please, please, tell Mr. B...

Could somebody please tell Mr. Buckley that until he has a firm court date, he has nothing. Good lawyers will tell him, bad ones will just let matters take their course until funds are exhausted or t...

Be thankful for what we have because if Qantas had its way, there would be no competition except for token weekly flights by flag carriers from Britain and America and Sydney Airport would be the only...

P2 - something similar occurred mid 1970's. B727 two similar approaches, one with local Dme, t' other with international dme. Plates almost identical. The Captain calculated the impact point was abou...

.......and just when we think the Beast is finally defeated, Buckley compensated and that there is no further excuse for drastic reform along FAA lines, CASA will pull two rabbits out of the hat and ...

It's axiomatic that rights must be paired with responsibilities. The Westminster system handles this pretty well at the indivicdlevel eg: Rights (voting, freedoms, welfare, medical, etc) = responsi...

It beggars belief that Mr. Harfield (who has been in the job far too long) is able to publish the kind of nonsense quoted above: "The CEO of air traffic control provider Airservices has admitted hi...

I’ve had enough of Mr. Buckley. I am not going to follow this story any further. Years ago I invested a great deal of time and a considerable amount of my employers money over a three year period i...

CASA, like all employers, has a duty under occupational health and safety laws to provide a safe working environment. It matters not whether Mr. Buckley has committed an offence and I am sure tha...

Having read the dropbox file, I’m afraid it’s over for Mr. Buckley. Whatever the administrative mayhem CASA is alleged to have caused him, there is absolutely no excuse for his alleged behaviour and j...

Game, set and match to CASA. Glen Buckley wouldn’t get a lawyer and now he has destroyed what chances he might have had of getting some restitution. In his post today, unless I’m mistaken, I think Mr...

Any bets on whether any Australian Airport will be safer as a result? This looks to me to be the excavation of the regulatory foundations for a major fire fighting cost cutting exercise planned fo...

Mr. Buckley is at it again - an FOI request to CASA regarding their communications with the Commonwealth Ombudsman. He would be much better served reading the Robodebt report - the section on the S...
