It's actually a simple process - restructure. Remove both the Deputy DAS role and the Associate DAS role. Give it a few months then bring in one or two good outside people in some slickly worded 'positions' and once they're in the door, give them some teeth and then in 6 months time rename the roles to whatever suits the masses.
However, don't hold your breath. The fact that both Beaker and Murky had their positions extended last year shows that old Crusty Head has no intentions of making proper changes to his Ministerial portfolio. Manning and Boyds appointments were a way to shut up the IOS, make it appear that change was coming. Bollocks. A lone Manning at ATSB and a lone Boyd at CAsA have as much teeth as the Senators do, nil.
It's a whitewash boys, a complete crock of shit. The day that Beaker, Murky, Harfinch, Sir Anus, Dr Voodoo and Skid'Mark get rolled is the day that I start believing that Australian aviation oversight is being taken seriously by the Government.
