That could stand for the A. C. T. or the Civil Aviation Act, either way only Parliament can cause real reform, starting by changing the Act, reforms which have become really urgent.
In the past GA has looked to CASA for reform action, this was never going to occur because CASA’s salary factory make work programs and fee gouging would be seriously difficult to justify.
The newly formed Australian General Aviation Association (SAAA, AOPA and AMROBA so far) are planning a meeting in Can’tberra mid year.
Let’s hope this will provide the political impetus that is so necessary.
