WOW! Miniscule Dickie King mentions aviation, safety regulation and CASA in one Media Release?? -   

Talking about pictures worth a 1000 words, how about a title worth a 1000 words? The title to the latest pre-prepared word weasel confection to come from the miniscule's office absolutely nails the total disconnection with all reality the Albo Govt and this miniscule have when it comes to the dire straits the aviation industry in this country finds itself...  

"Ensuring world-leading aviation safety regulation"

The Australian Government has issued a new Statement of Expectations for Australia’s Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA), setting the strategic direction for the next two years.

I have also re-appointed Ms Elizabeth Hallett to the CASA Board for a three-year term.

The new statement and board re-appointment will both underpin CASA’s vital aviation safety role, so they continue to be a world-leading aviation safety regulator.

From licensing pilots and registering aircraft, to overseeing aviation safety and awareness, CASA help ensure we share the skies safely – whether for travel, freight or recreation.

Ensuring aviation safety remains the highest priority is strongly reflected in the new statement, which also outlines expectations surrounding transparency, engaging stakeholders and communities, and supporting the delivery of 18 important initiatives.

These aviation safety-bolstering initiatives include measures to modernise airspace management, implement satellite-based augmentation systems in the aviation environment, share safety information, and advance Australia’s space policies and industries.

Ms Hallett’s legal expertise and strategic leadership experience will continue to be an asset to the Board, ensuring strong leadership that supports CASA as they strive to meet these expectations.

I look forward to continuing to work with CASA as we keep Australia’s skies safe.

Hmm...as an aside it is interesting that this bit from BJ's SOE has been kept in?  - 

(g) provide regulatory oversight for major aerodrome infrastructure projects, including significant new runway projects, as well as advising me and the Department on federal airport developments;

Again, all just words on a page with absolutely zero legal obligation on CASA to actually comply with the miniscule's worthless wish list...

PS Hmm...so much for BJ's 'GA workplan' -

Who is Silvia? what is she,
    That all our swains commend her?
Holy, fair, and wise is she;
    The heaven such grace did lend her,
That she might admirèd be.

Is she kind as she is fair?
    For beauty lives with kindness.
Love doth to her eyes repair,
    To help him of his blindness;
And, being helped, inhabits there.

Then to Silvia let us sing,
    That Silvia is excelling;
She excels each mortal thing
    Upon the dull earth dwelling;
To her let us garlands bring
