Interesting PAIN report:  http://auntypru.com/wp-content/uploads/2...opin_2.pdf

The most recent comparison between FAA and ATSB safety recommendations to the regulator was 2010. Does anyone know if there is any more recent research in progress?

G'day Choppagirl, I was the original researcher that did the SR comparison between the FAA and the ATSB for the years 2000 to 2010. Although I have been monitoring the ATSB Aviation mode SRs since I have not been doing the same for the NTSB. However it is relatively easy to access the NTSB SR archive, see HERE. It is pretty clear from that huge database that under the 'aviation mode' (or any transport mode for that matter) that the NTSB are extremely proactive with the issuance of SRs to address many identified 'Safety Issues' in active and completed AAIs.

Compare that to the ATSB over the period from 01/01/2011 to now there has been 36 SRs issued - see HERE - of which 13 are addressed to CASA.

Hope that helps -
