I don't wish to get into the personalities, just say I am proud to be one of about 20 million Australians he doesn't seem to get on with.

Why me in particular, well many moons ago CASA wrote to all aircraft owners telling us that under the new, and AOPA approved, Part 47 we could now hand our C of Rs over to our nominated LAME along with a signed book of cheques.

Said person was part of the Board at that time, I was not (never been on a Board with him).

As aircraft owners, Jane and I said FARKTHIS loudly and so, via Democrat Senator Brian Griegg, and amongst howls of protest (well insults actually) from said person and one other still on Board, we had it disallowed in the Senate.

So the reason, because I am obviously a fool who fails to recognise the enormity of their collective wisdom I suppose
