Does anyone remember from years ago the parachutists VS ASIC card (when operating at a security controlled airport) farce?
The CASA ruling came in at - parachutists were regarded as passengers when boarding, so no ASIC required.
Then when they bailed out and landed back at the same airport, someone had to run out and issue them each a VISITOR ASIC card and escort them back in.
They weren't eligible for their own ASIC cards because they were not flight crew.
