I got a very nice follow up email from the Thai DCA today asking why it was taking so long to get a response from CASA. I forwarded it to CASA. Hopefully they are duly embarrassed by being slow and inefficient compared with a "third world" country.

As heard on the radio, old Akro, from an American crew who had just been pineappled by ASA:

"Welcome to Australia, the only third world country where you can drink the water!!"

CASA have now sent an email to the Thai DCA saying that they are unable to confirm my licence until I fill out the release form and pay the fee.

I did this on Dec 4, the Thai DCA know I did this on Dec 4 and I have 2 emails from CASA acknowledging that that have received it.

I'm embarrassed to be Australian and to be represented by such incompetent public service at the moment.

Detail the scenario and order of events and send it to Mr Skidmore.

Ask him how he would feel being left stranded by this level of poor service. And what he intends to do about it. CC to the minister.

Self servants...

Unfortunately, Old Akro the bureaurats are not our elected "represententives" that we can vote out of office for incompetance.(I wish)
The pollie wafflers are that ...and they just let the bureaucracy do its thing.

It will be done in their way, in their own good time and if it causes angst, delays and financial impost...so what?..not their problem.!

Thats why yr file can lie on a couple of desks for months while those 'servants that dont serve' or care, have "stress" leave or holidays.

Skidmore may well get you a quick response.
The miniscules office might respond....in about 6 months, if at all.
Rotsa ruck.

Bet you could not con road users into carrying several sheets of A4 as a licence.

News Flash CASA - not all pilots fly with a filing cabinet.

Got mine in the post today.

Missing stuff, of course.

Called them about it.

Now have to fill out forms and send notarised documents because they cannot do their FKING jobs properly.
