UFB?? - Amen to that; and more...
P2 - “You would have thought the Minister supposedly over-sighting aviation, would have taken the time to get engaged and offer support to the community members contributing to the Senate Inquiry into 'impact and mitigation of aircraft noise.” (see: Airservices Australia 'not fit for purpose': Inquiry hears.) - UFB??
“Politicians are a lot like diapers. They should be changed frequently, and for the same reasons.”
UFB? - Well, no, not really. What is truly and completely FB is the tangible, demonstrated will to get re-elected; through top cover tactics. The 'minuscule' has literally millions of tax payer (wages) dollars to spend providing top cover. There is a wall of minions to plough through – all rice bowl protective, long before 'the minuscule' faces the music. Pontious Pilate did a similar thing; nothing new here; so move along. There is little need for the minuscule to be aware, let alone become involved in a major airport development; no Sir. Not when there are countless, highly paid scapegoats available to carry the can; so why would the minuscule bother with such a minor issue? No need really – all the major problems and the whining and sniveling of 'hoi-poloi' can be dealt with through the tedium of 'top cover' departmental heads. That is why they are paid the big money after all; and, for no other plausible reason.
“The first opinion which one forms of a prince, and of his understanding, is by observing the men he has around him.”
Spot on I'd say. Anyone who believes Bettsy (the sacred cow) is worth a million a year is 'barking' – he ain't. However; – as a convenient 'get out of goal card sacrifice, 'priceless; unless his 'damage potential' (to the minuscule) is greater than the political fallout. Information is great collateral.. But he will survive; some other Mutt, down the gravy train will catch it – in the neck – should Trumps turn to worms. And it will – soon or late – the fiasco and the rorts and the deception and the noise and the impact and etc; must, eventually be revealed. But it won't matter. The cast and crew will all be paid off; the obscene, useless developers will be off on their holidays, fat, dumb and well paid. Another stellar achievement logged for a government which is really only interested in 'power', bull-shit and keeping the money rolling in. Nice work – if you can get it. Shame on this government – since Hawke set the template the downward spiral has continued.
“Laws are best explained, interpreted, and applied by those whose interest and abilities lie in perverting, confounding, and eluding them.”
Mrs McINTOSH (Lindsay) (13:36): "The residents of Western Sydney have not been impressed with the Albanese Labor government's minister for infrastructure's hoodwinking tactics on our local community."
Many, (too many) years ago; a local Poacher and I were great mates; he was indeed a true expert on the ways of Badgers, and other fascinating creatures. One of my most cherished memories is sitting on a fallen Oak, deep within a 'real' wood, in silence (smoking my first Woodbine) and watching a whole family of Badgers coming out to forage for their supper – but, I digress. His words on how to properly, without serious damage to self or a lost Falcon are best summed up below. In short, 'Hooding' anything that can be dangerous and kills for living must be handled correctly.
Hoodwinking; “Hoodwinked, another falconry word that found its way into everyday usage. I looked it up in the dictionary: to dupe or trick. I must not be very bright because every time I ever tried to trick a raptor I always ended up losing blood. Now I don’t for one minute believe that blindfolding a creature tricks it into thinking that its night time, but it does have the same desired and instant effect.”
“No man can claim to be a master of hawks until he is master of the art of hooding” (Gilbert Blaine 1936)
Now then, King, (the inutile) is playing the fool with a very dangerous animal; and, the top cover gambit foisted on the public is simply a distraction – the real story is deep within the 'money' trail. The tax payer will (as usual) get stuck with the rhetoric, plausible deniability and – the airport. But long before the first Jet interrupts Judge Judy or Playschool – the profits have been taken, the commissions all paid and the tax breaks for owning 10 meters of concrete have been hauled in. It is insult added to grievous injury by folks who care not a fig for the locals or air transport industry, or even the law: provided the trimming are all from the top shelf - “I'm alright Jack” is rule 1.
“It could probably be shown by facts and figures that there is no distinctly native criminal class except Congress.”
Hitch - “The Aviation Maintenance Repair and Overhaul Business Association (AMROBA) very publicly reversed their direction on Part 43 from "yea" to "nay", which may be a dagger in the heart of the proposed regulation. With that imprimatur in the bin, other organisations are wondering if persisting with Part 43 is simply pumping air into a punctured inner tube. Even if CASA implements a regulation that stands to reduce the maintenance burden for private and airwork aircraft owners, the MROs can simply refuse to do the work to that standard, making Part 43 a duck on crutches”.
AMROBA and Ken Cannane have done thousands of Kilometers; and written many thousands of words; over an extended period time pointing out, clearly, eloquently, pragmatically and sensibly the only 'sensible – legal' way forward. No matter – finally, Hitch and his rag have mentioned it. Wow! No doubt his dribble and brave stand will sway government and CASA thinking to fall in line with the rest of the world's adopted (by democratic/expert agreement) on best practice. Spence must have to call in the used car sales fella now, to un-ruffle her skirts. Aye; Hitch is a true champion – six years and one mention of AMROBA. My stats show the AMROBA thread at 163, 847 unique views; just a few more than Hitch's tremulous bullet dodging attracted. Good enough? – Um; no, not quite Hitch. Splinters in the posterior; demonstrable proof of too long sat on the fence.

That's about it – I reckon; I did delete a page or two more. That is a facet of actually doing the reading and research – the mess would be (and probably is) unbelievable to anyone who did not. But rest assured – its all there; from the incredible to the unbelievable; writ large and freely available. Patience is required along with an ICAO/ FAA audit – a real one; no holds barred. Pay hard cash to see that. Looking forward to tomorrow though; should be interesting. Some of those bidding on the restored Grand Mother clock (turned out better than hoped) wanted a 'class' on 'joinery' – fascinated by the dovetails etc. So, there's a workshop to dust down, tools to sharpen and, I suppose, I'd best true up some scrap Pine – if you make neat joints in that – you can make joints in anything. They have promised Ale and DT has a couple of dozen sausage rolls in the oven; should be fun. Time to visit the 'wild woods' – the 'Pup' has taken to fetching me one boot when the time to ramble is nigh; bless him..
'Well, then, supposing we go and call on HIM?' suggested the Mole.
'O, I'm sure he wouldn't like that at ALL,' said the Rat, quite alarmed. 'He's so very shy, he'd be sure to be offended. I've never even ventured to call on him at his own home myself, though I know him so well. Besides, we can't. It's quite out of the question, because he lives in the very middle of the Wild Wood.'
