Where to start?
Wombat certainly has set the tone and pointed to where rational rules serve in the marine area, good information. We know that other aviation countries are doing way better than ourselves where, like the USA, there’s a reasonable environment for General Aviation to exist and prosper.
Apart from meaning well, and many good reforms intentioned, as usual, Ms. Spence’s ‘tea and sympathy’ offering has to be the most extraordinarily hedged piece of bureaucratised Can’tberra speak I’ve ever had to read.
This part says it all:-
“I also want to assure you that these reforms signal the start of continuing efforts by CASA ..”
So the continuing efforts have been started? What was that date please?
It’s all so ridiculous and would be April Fool’s laughable if this wasn’t coming from a senior government official receiving in excess of $600,000 per annum.
This is all a real shame, that Ms. Spence is lacking control of her remit was starkly shown during the Senate RRAT hearings when her underlings threw her under the bus as she floundered around under the withering fire from Angel Flight’s Marjorie Pagani. I’ve never seen the like before, it’s all there on UTube. Look at that and wonder if she has been wounded beyond saving. She obviously had not been briefed, or taken the trouble herself, to understand the excruciating details of CASA’s punishment of AF. Similarly she’s not had the will to look into the Glen Buckley disaster of CASA’s making, instead hand balled this hot potato back to the Ombudsman, again.
Where does this leave us? What hope? Alan Jones and or the like, it’s election time and only political action can hope to make a difference.
