Mythical reform.

Mythical reform reaches 35 years and how many pages??Dodgy

In somewhat of a follow up to Creampuff's infamous UP thread: "The Regulatory Reform Program will drift along forever" , I note that there is a new thread that is creating a degree of interest... Wink

Some posts off the UP thread: https://www.pprune.org/pacific-general-a...pages.html

How many pages

Just as a matter of interest, how many pages are in the new regs?

CASRs alone? According to the Federal Register of Legislative Instruments 5 minutes ago: 2,522 pages. But that’s growing.

Then add MOSs. They’re growing.

Of course we don’t count the 1988 regs or CAOs or exemptions because they’ll all be gone in 1998.

Original 1988 regulations? 148 pages. Add CAOs and other odds and sods and student pilots in the mid-1980s were confronted with about 250 pages of rules.

It’s amazing how much a couple of decades and a couple of billion dollars has bought Australian aviation in ‘simplification’ and ‘harmonisation’.

You forgot the CASA EX that are well buried in the CASA website not linked anywhere logical.

Took me 20 mins on casa,gov.au to relocate an EX I knew existed that modified something rather important on the CASRs.

I still longingly look back to the ANRs where

(a) the one booklet was about a half inch thick.

(b) it rarely changed

© we all could parrot off chapter and verse for a host of regulatory requirements - trying to do that now would be folly in the extreme

(d) the ANOs were comparatively easy to navigate and find stuff.

Despite the $quilions spent on the "Regulatory Reform", I seriously doubt, in practice, the new Regulations and Orders provide any greater safety than the pre 1988 documents. 35 years (so far) in the making!

I am reminded of the RRAT Committee inquiries of 18 years ago when Bruce Byron uttered these immortal words:

Quote:Senator MARK BISHOP—When do you think those regulations will go to the minister?

Mr Byron—I anticipate we would start sending some of them from about the middle of this year. I do not see this delaying the overall program excessively. We have an action item to develop a plan to forward to the minister about when we plan to have them to the minister, and I assume that plan would be done in the next couple of months. I would be hopeful that it would not be long after early 2006 that most of the draft rules are delivered to the minister.

I suspect Mr Byron's response was plagiarised from the "Yes Minister" script.



john_tullamarine

If it weren't so tragic, it would be comedic. At least, with the Yes Minister stuff, you knew that they were having a go at the system.

The trouble with aviation regulations is that as fast as CASA draws up new regs some smart bunny works to get around them and thus the cycle of more new regs goes on.

CASA once said no more exemptions But from my reckoning CASA has to date issued more than 400 exemptions.

And for all the new regs by my count the accident rate has gone up rather than down.



tail wheel

runway16 It is a known fact that the more complex (and ambiguous) the regulation the easier it is to "find a way around" that regulation.

Compound that by the fact there are now anti competitive and non commercial regulations with no known safety benefit.

So much for our Australian civil aviation regulations, when the Australian Government assisted PNG financially to adopt a replica of the New Zealand Regulations!

Ever wondered why so many business jets in Australia are US (or foreign) registered? Or why the larger water bombers are US or Canadian registered?

Ever pondered the cost and time to modify a B737, B747, DC10 or C130 to a water bomber in Australia, operate Australian registered on an Australian AOC? It would be a lifetime project in frustration!

The hypocrisy in Australia can be beyond belief. I recall some years ago (post 1988) the owner of a Cessna 206 being honest sought a ferry permit to ferry the aircraft for maintenance without a prop spinner. CASA required flight testing and an EO before they would consider the request for a ferry permit!

Few realise that with the abolition of CAR203 the air services to approximately a hundred Australian remote and rural air communities became illegal, except in the NT where the then CASA DFOM had the common sense to approve those essential services. CASA then proceeded with an aggressive campaign to eliminate those "illegal" operators by any and all means, many of whom were long term small operators, committed to serving their communities.

We have a bureaucracy like no other........

The US FAA Federal Aviation Regulations and Aeronautical Information Manual (FAR/AIM) is 1216 pages long.

That contains absolutely everything in one book. It's about the same size as a big novel. The USA is one of the most litigiousness countries on earth and they don't seem to need 3+ plus manuals with thousands of pages for their regs. All for $26 USD.

But they don't have a Civil Aviation Safety Authority in the USA, do they? Since, according to CASA, there is nothing safer than an airplane parked in a hangar (preferably under continual maintenance/upgrade to meet the latest regs, thus keeping LAMEs in work), it seems the folks over there are more interested in enabling people to fly.

   
Finally I note that Leady has picked up on the last 2 parliamentary tabled CASA CASR legislative instruments, that I mentioned here: DLM 3 of 2023 etc.

Quote:Lead Balloon

Probably an order of magnitude exaggeration.

It's probably 'only' around 6,500, when you add to the CASRs: the Act, the CARs and the MOSs and the directions and exemptions (and the AIP ...)

Here's the latest snowflake on the tip of the iceberg of simplification:

CASA is now amending amended exemptions because CASA stuffed up earlier amendments. I shit you not.

Remember: We were told that the new rules would be so good that exemptions would not be required.
