ICAO flogs Australian oversight.
Severely, with a small, damp lettuce leaf. That’ll fix it all up, quick smart – right?
How about this for a thrashing:-
“Ensure that the State has a coordinated mechanism to ensure full and effective implementation of the obstacle limitation surfaces (OLS) at aerodromes, including arrangements to prohibit any building developments which could create an obstacle to aircraft operations.”
Wow , tough stuff (not). The many posts on the 'Airports' forum will assist the casual reader in deciding if the punishment fits the crime. Search word - ESSENDON.
But of course, no one bothers to read, let alone take our safety watchdogs to task; and so, the whole carefully worded confection will slowly find it’s way to the ‘shelf-ware’ section of the basement, to moulder away with all the other embarrassing documents. The time honoured system has never let the minister down. Softly, softly the damning paper work creeps away, while ICAO swans off to new engagements, trusting that the DoIT will make the suggested changes happen, sometime over the next decade or so; no rush….
You have to wonder why this innocuous, bland report has been kept out of the public purview, we did after all pay for it. Then there is the question of the CAN. But, for my money, the stellar performance of the Canberra back line takes the biscuit.
The 'who' authorized the building ‘ball’ goes into the Senate scrum – the Canberra back's get it and the speed at which the ball (and the responsibility) is passed along is truly breathtaking. It seems that no one is 'wholly’ responsible for parking a bloody great big building, full of ‘happy shoppers’ in harms way. The crowd watching begin the traditional chant “No, weren’t us” - loud and long.......
BOLLOCKS; Mr Genuine Minister needs to pay close attention – the law suites are coming; soon as ATSB gets off it’s beam ends and actually does something that is not window dressing and prevarication. Murky knows who rewrote the ‘definitions’ and who flogged off the airports to developers; him and Beaker, up their eyebrows.
I hope the Yanks crucify ‘em – I’ll even help them. No matter, great audit, really helpful. iCAO ‘on –the-money’.
Toot – toot – one for luck – Toot.
