Barnaby’s little conundrum.
P2 – “Q/ Now ask what happened to the money ($89.9 million back then) that was gouged and continues to be gouged (reportedly +$120 million & climbing) from industry, supposedly to fix the deficiencies discovered in the FAA IASA 2009 audit?”
Amazing is it not; when you think about it. CASA make a total pig’s ear of running ‘aviation’ and the grown ups want it fixed; or else. Yet it is the industry they are buggering up which has to pay for them to fix the major problems. I wonder did CASA contribute to the ‘fix’ by reduced salary and entitlement cuts; or, did the same sad, sloppy, ignorant, arrogant crew just keep doing what they do best (same old) and even manage a salary increase?
Even more amazing is that the Board, still, to this day have no control. In the corporate world a CEO running an organization which had received a shocking audit report would be on the carpet, with the board of directors kicking seven bells out of him. But not in CASA; the grandiosely named DAS can, with impunity, tell the board to sit down, shut up and mind their own damn business. The board must have either have ‘proper’ power and control or; be disbanded, which is favourite - save us all a few bucks. The board is nugatory and therefore redundant. The 'director' has unlimited power - without any tenable checks and tangible balances, it is time that changed.
The whole P2 post above simply demonstrates the depths to which CASA will stoop, their skills in misdirection and subterfuge amply demonstrated and their inflexible reluctance to change. Total power etc. The barn door is wide open, horse has bolted, it’s time to shut the paddock gate.
Can Barnaby reach the gate before it’s all too little, too late. Has Barnaby got the sand to call a Commission of Inquiry; a one where those being looked at do not write the terms of reference; or, will we have another period of Darren6D do nothing?
Toot- toot.
