And who dictates what 'safety' you should get ?
It should be a tripartite ?thing, by all those involved with integrity, honesty and genuine co-operation. Pilots, engineers, regulator
The people in the cockpit, who will be first to arrive at the scene of any accident have a serious interest. Like wise with those that put spanners on the machines we fly in .
We take it on trust they all do there job properly.
Unfortunately the current regulator has no integrity, is dishonest and has created such an overwhelming tsunami of complex, convoluted and contradictory regs, it actually make it less safe. They've LONG forgotten the KISS principle. More regs =safer.
Its rampant rubbbish... but it sustains a whole creche of trough dwellers, kidding themselves THEY are the only ones that can do 'safety'
And theres many a strict liability barb on the CAsA fence to hang up the unwary.
Going political is the only way that might get some change. But dont hold yr breath.
Probably best to fill yr lungs with fresh maritime air and go sailing.
A Cirrus owner told me yesterday...enough of the BS, I'm buying a Catamaran.!
Says it all really.
