Ayup: a one choc frog post.
Good words Sandy, spot on and an excellent example of the contradictions between a great safety record, of an aviation orientated nation (despite their less than helpful climate) and a second rate one.
Sandy - “Our Government should hang it’s head in shame at the disgraceful and unjust treatment of an individual seeking to make the business of flying training more efficient, and more broadly this would be to the benefit of all Australians.”
So true; but there is a dark side to this. Without a 'court' date and even with 'strict liability' it is 'difficult' to even take someone's driving licence without 'just cause' and (suitable) evidence to support. Yet CASA can roll up, decide all manner of things are wrong and just close down a million dollar a year operation and sack its 'critical' staff in a heartbeat, just on their say-so. It is just so ducking 'wrong'. This is 'the real crux' not the one St. Commodious alludes to. CASA's opinion v hard facts and the rule of law. Load of bollocks, unconstitutional, undemocratic and bloody unfair.
