DESIGN SAFETY CASE
In relation to your last post (20 June 2004 22:31) about the design safety case, I will say once again. This was a unique requirement introduced by the Adrian Dumsa and the air traffic controllers at Airservices. I believe it was introduced so that any reform that was not supported by the air traffic controllers (Civil Air) and management could be stopped.
I think your claim that Airservices/Adrian Dumsa/air traffic controllers introduced the design safety case requirement purely to be obstructive is incorrect. CASA requires Airservices to conduct such assessments for all changes to the airways system as part of their ATS provider certification. But then I guess you also think CASA are a bunch of obstructive burocrats too.
