Independent instructors and LAMEs.
Freehold on airports.
Simple rules and get rid of strict liability and criminality.
Car driver medical regime or better.
No more compulsory SIDS and other home grown speciality restraints.
Build in some incentives, no AFRs for owners or CPL or more than say 1000 hr pilots. Lifetime ASICS for instructors or over 50 yo, think many similar such ideas.
If we play their game, situation normal, year upon year of reviews, reports and a few crumbs thrown our way. Waste your time, smarmy army and beguile the overawed hicks from the bush. The power spell of Can'tberra must be resisted, know the absolute priority is to make change that benefits Australia and understand that our overall benefits in aviation will partially destroy the good life of Can'tberra. This is what the fight is about. Make no mistake, they will fight dirty but they are not really smart, they are myopic and uninformed, we can win.
Luv it Sandy, this comes to mind when you write like that...
