Lookleft,
There you go again, assumption, wrong initials, and that would be a bit of a thin CV, if that's all there was!!
And you clearly have not read the detailed ICAO audit reports, that are (were??) on the Department of (now) Infrastructure web site, and have probably never had access to the FAA audit. Suffice to say (as others here know) Australia has twice in recent years gone very close to being relegated to a Cat. 2 nation by FAA/USA, thanks to CASA.
You may or may not know the severe commercial penalties that would bring to the Australian aviation sector, particularly Qantas and Virgin, and only headed off, on both occasions, by frantic diplomatic activity.
Have you ever actually read any of the various inquiry reports with an open mind (but not open at both ends).
I never cease to be amazed at the CASA boosters claims, despite all the overwhelming evidence to the contrary.
Tootle pip!!
