Wow. This is difficult.

I expect CASA to be open and honest and state that in many cases they do not put safety in front of affordability.

And to be consistent. The unique early ADSB mandate has done extraordinary damage to GA. Too late now to do anything about it.

No other country I know of has the absolute statement “ most importantly consideration should be safety “

The bureaucracy over 20 years ago forced this into legislation. They insisted that the traveling public is so dumb they can’t be told the truth about affordable safety.
