A Friday night ramble.

..............................

I guess I’m just trying, in my usual, clumsy fashion to point out that the currently ‘in vogue’ slavish reliance on black letter compliance, whilst disregarding hard won ‘common’ or garden, experienced sense has the potential to kill you – legally of course.  It is the bastion of those who have never been inducted into the genuine, grass roots ‘mystique’ of real air safety or understood how to translate myth, legend and knowledge into a practical, working anthology of ‘aviation’.  Those who believe strict compliance will, if they actually did ever have to fly to earn a living, find that rigid compliance will keep them, technically and legally safe, whilst clinically dead, all for wont of ‘understanding’.

Aye well – enough of my ramblings.  All your fault “V”, enjoy the TT’s.

Unfortunately, "Compliance" is the "buzz-word" in vogue these days, virtually across the board.  Just go to ANY so-called "competency based training" course, in ANY industry today.  Labour's "training guarantee" policy of years ago, created a "training" industry, which sprouts ninety percent legalistic compliance bullshit to scare the plebs, and ten percent defective advice for on the job.

"The law is the law.
Only unto the law, and for the practicioners of the law, is the law.
Any resemblence to truth or justice, let alone common sense,
is purely coincidental, and entirely unintentional,
as per the disclaimers at the ends of the movies,
and deliberately so."

Better that one may die, legally - than survive, illegally.
Sad, but true.
