Absolutely bang on Capt PPRuNe. Why do we all bury our heads in the sand and allow these inept politicians to continue dictating these imbecillic policies? I suppose it's because we aviation professionals are too busy doing a real day's (or night's) work! You're right of course, we should somehow collectively make ourselves heard but it needs someone with the knowhow and, above all, the time. Don't forget that the idiots who drum up all these farcical policies do so as part of their job (I use the term advisedly), in their working time, and get paid for it to boot. Any opposition campaign that we may want to mount will be in our own (very precious) free time and at our cost.
Any volunteers out there?
