Hi again, Clare
As I’ve said in another thread, AVMED is now in my opinion a force inimical to the interests of aviation safety. They seem to me to be on an inferiority complex-driven crusade to prove their expertise, but achieve the opposite. The widespread practise is now to tell them nothing. That’s what 1a meant by playing the game. In order to survive in the real world of GA, people just nod and smile and pretend to take CASA seriously so as to avoid the consequences of attempting to engage them with reality. Unfortunately, as you and Glen and many others have found out, the damage is sometimes unavoidable.
