On behalf of the 60% - NOW - calling BOLLOCKS.

Too ancient and set in my ways. Learnt the way this CASA world wags, decades ago. Time to call this latest fairy tale for what it is. 'All the best Pip” has just sent a huge 'Up Yours” to industry. I'd bet many choc frogs that she is the the useless ministers hand maiden – political expediency and election angst over rules all.

In some countries – corruption is an open game; available to all with the gelt. But never mind – the only problem aviation has according to the ministerial 'vision' is all fixed wing pilots learning VTOL skills – someone should tell him the Jetsons were no more than a cartoon fantasy – bit like SOAR – the inspirational idyll. Far removed from the Buckley common sense way to aid a dying industry.

That's my two Bob spent as pleases me best. The next two, and another two after them may buy enough Ale to allay the fury at this monstrous insult to industry's legitimate complaint being reduced to a demeaning 'piss take'. Second the motion – SHAME on that Estimates committee.

Set 'em here – and keep 'em coming; thank you.
