Just more proof that all the over regulating of GA ever did was hamstring honest operators. And those that bend the rules to make cash survive as long as they are smart enough to do it carefully to not attract attention. The frustration I had in GA when competing with unscrupulous operators that undercut legit operators and did quasi illegal things that were hard to prove, let alone get CASAs interest. One of the main issues that should be addressed is that the owner/manager needs to bear the brunt of legal consequences, not the staff. Start sending the shonky bosses to jail for accidents and rule breeches, things clean up very fast. In any case I feel that was by far one of the biggest issue for GA for the last 50 years.

Start putting the owner on trial for why a plane busted a minima, why a pilot busted flight and duty limits, why an aircraft went past maintenance. The owner will hire and pay staff that wont put him in jail and the industry cleans up. At present the PIC and CP wear the consequences of actions that can really be grouped into commercial pressure, which is directed down the chain by company culture. You want the culture to change, start at the top.
