Capt Bloggs;

Coming to a conclusion based on assumptions of due process and fair dealing, where CASA is concerned, is a brave call.

In fact, in one quite amazing case ( a marriage bust up) a TAA F/O was fired without even an investigation, as a probationer, as a result of accusations by said departing wife. IHMO, having known her since school, she was a ratbag. There is, sadly, more than one of these in the AFAP and AIPA files.

In one AIPA case, NO, the pilot ( a Captain) had committed NO breach of company or CAA/CASA rules, but in the land of the pan-fried steak for the tec. crew meal, the vindictiveness of a blue coat, as they were then, knows no bounds. It was the most procedurally unfair thing I have ever seen, and I've seen a few.

In the US or UK system, the same result could NOT have happened, but with CAIR, stuff went straight to CAA/CASA, and was all too often treated as gospel !!!!
