CASA bollocks 'stating the facts' presser:

Type: Stating the facts
Date: 23 June 2023
An update on the industry technical working group looking at aviation medical reform.

A key area of focus has been on finding the right balance between the level of medical assurance and the level of operational freedom that would deliver the greatest benefit to private and recreational aviation in Australia.

Anyone managing risks is familiar with the two sides of the risk equation – consequence and likelihood. If you can keep the consequences low, you can accept a higher chance of something going wrong. If the consequences are high, we all expect more effort to assure safety.

In practical terms, the group has been debating what level of operational freedoms is important for sport and recreational activity across the wide range of aviation in Australia – so that the level of medical assurance can be appropriately matched.

Parameters like the size or weight of an aircraft, or the altitude that you want to operate at will affect how much medical assurance is needed to keep the risks to passengers or third parties appropriate. These are the types of operational parameters the group has been providing guidance on.

We expect to be putting a proposed model to the aviation community for comment soon.

The Technical Working Group consists of representatives from across the aviation community bringing diverse and different perspectives.

We’re disappointed that one working group member from AOPA has been unable to accept that there are views beyond his own and participate respectfully. He won’t be participating further but we can assure members of that industry association that we value their input and that their interests will continue to be represented by others.

Kind of sounds very similar to the Hooded Canary's instigated ATSB correcting the record??
