Good to see Ben Cooks name on the attendee list. At least someone who knows their shit was there!

"Wonder what the overall cost was? Would anyone from CASA be able to put a dollar cost on this or these forums? Were any of Mr. Skidmore's 26 member "Tiger Team" who are working full time to correct the hopelessly compromised Part 61 regs in attendance?"
P2, out of curiosity, and I'm just spit-balling here, how does one pull 26 staff out of their respective roles, pretty much overnight, and have them work on a new project without their old roles suffering as a result? Think about it - 26 full time tigers have been taken from their cages and out in the one den. CAsA certainly must be over staffed to have the luxury of pulling out 26 employees from jobs they were already committed to, don't you think?
The 'tigers' wouldn't be cleaners, ground staff, clerks, snake catchers or pot plant maintainers, surely? The 26 must have come from fairly important areas? And what is happening in their old areas of expertise, staff shortages as a result?
Mythical indeed. And all bollocks.
"Safe tiger taming for all"
Dear Gobbledock, you forget that the now CEO of CASA, we are slowly moving away from the embarrassing and pretentious Director (Conductor?) of Air Safety title, that there are some 850 employees to chose from. Even though they are working like mad, just as hard as those out there in private enterprise, lucky they had that fatigue management course to fall back on, but there are still a few who are not away on sabbaticals, ICAO, safety seminars or doing the rounds like ramp checks at Avalon to find a dedicated few Tigers.
