What bendy says. Try removing every second word (seriously). You need to take a week to get this right. if you have any media savvy friends please get them to help you.
the opening paragraph has to explain why this matters to the reader!
”glen buckley started a business that grew to xmillion and y employees training z airline pilots every year, then the government strangled his business with red tape and tried to destroy him. now he is fighting back....... something like that is your. opening.
then you state this is not about safety but bureaucratic BS.
‘’this is about the little guy fighting big government- glen is the underdog.
then this makes a reference to Pm morrison’s pledge about red tape.
that is your opener.
then a very terse summary of vwhat casa did.
then a reference to australian flying and industry comment.
the observation has to be tha no one can safely invest in aviation in australia while the regulator can destroy their investment overnight on a whim with no accountability to anyone...the action makes a mockery of the morrison government attempts to portray australia as a business friendly destination for overseas investment with a reformist “can do” red tape removing agenda.
finally a pithy quote from glen and an email address and phone number for journos.
Sorry, watching footy.
question; would the IPA like to hear about this?
