A how to: On taking industry on the journey??

The model is still broke. We can hope that Ms. Spence and Mr. Binskin will recommend in short time that the Act be changed to create a new CAA as a Government Department with it’s own Minister.

How hopeful should we be? On a scale of 1 to 100 a rational estimate would be around .01.

Its said that hope springs eternal. In the case of General Aviation the springs have sprung and the season is a bleak unrelenting winter.

I will wish Pip Spence the best in her new job. It won’t take long to measure the variation from my .01.

Top post Sandy and totally concur...  

I will also add the following, courtesy of Para 377 over on the UP: https://www.pprune.org/australia-new-zea...st11033209

..Two more slippery pole sliders who have proven their ability to subserviently kneel before their Government masters and do as they are told. And of course the Government chooses a female so they can tick another box on the political correctness manifest. She has no idea what she is in for, I can assure you of that. No idea!


But to prove what kind of effective ‘leaders’ they are going to really be, let’s see them execute the following top 3 moves;

1. Send Crawford packing
2. Send Aleck packing
3. Issue an apology to Glen Buckley and compensate him as he should be.

If these two new muppets can do the above then their is a tiny semblance of hope that CASA can be reformed, and regain industry trust and confidence. If they can’t do the above, then the same sh#t will continue as it has for the past 40 years...

...Hi Aroa, seems like some w#nkers (CASAsexuals) have an axe to grind around here, but back to the topic of CASA. As you have also been given the ‘Buckley treatment’ let’s hope for the remaining aviation industry’s sake that the Regulator is reformed. Morrison has certainly been putting the knife though other government departments and demanding less red tape and more efficiency. CASA requires the same treatment. New leadership always brings a tiny glimmer of hope. However those of us who have been in the industry 40+ years and are on our last legs or have gotten out altogether, aren’t holding our breath...

Totally 2nd the 3 suggested moves by Para 377, if Spence were to enable both 1 & 2 to happen ASAP (like tomorrow) and Biskin was to make No 3 happen as soon as taking up the mantle and then the Board (with the support of the dept) were to facilitate...

..that the Act be changed to create a new CAA as a Government Department with it’s own Minister... 

   
...then I believe you would see an industry actively promote the appointments of Spence and Biskin and engage with on the road fwd...

However if none of the above (as a minimum) happens and the status quo remains, then I believe you will see the industry fortunes decline further with mass exodus of many industry participants including RPT & Charter operators, MROs and flying schools...
