Full marks to De Stoop. The man has integrity, balls, and isn't afraid to show the world the true state of play. One can only wish that sort of strong respected leadership was in play years ago, back when corporate kiss arses as well as weak and arrogant batty boys were running AOPA, ain't that right Lookleft?
I like how De Stoop also isn't afraid to 'out' the reason, or at least one reason, why reform keeps getting scuttled - long term bureacratic survivors who have overstayed their welcome for far too long and ensured that the Iron Ring survives.Nice work Mark, diplomatically worded and succinctly put. Not something the Gobbledock could do!
It's funny how the Forsythe review, a catalyst for change, has been buried and cremated. Yet whenever the Governments authorise other reviews on things such as tax reform, unions, anything they actually want to change, they use a review to start the ball rolling and they make changes pretty quickly! The buried Forsythe review is proof that the Miniscule wants no change whatsoever. Shame on you, you out of touch, prehistoric numbnut.
You want to get shit done boys? Then it has to be Fawcett as Junior Minister for Aviation, Manning empowered at ATsB and Beaker and his lapdogs punted, Boyd empowered at CAsA with Dr Voodoo and Skid'Mark gone and Mike Smith brought in, and ASA's Harfwit, Sir Anus and some additional dipshits punted as well, and then an international candidate brought in. No more spin doctors, egomaniacs or lickers of the Miniscules ring piece.
It's actually a small list, only a handful of changes, but changes that would make a massive difference.
TICK TOCK Malcolm, if you allow this dangerous game and the decline in aviation to continue it will take more than a fat bank account and the ability to make middle aged female voters moist to save your ass if a smoking hole occurs......just sayin.
