Foyl,

My point is the AWPA, like many other associations, AAFI and GAPAN etc etc, seem to exist more so that their members can have the badge and attend useless meetings than addressing any real issues. Very little actual flying is ever done, and if it is, it rarely aims at improving the standards of aviating amongst its members.

It is a complete waste of time!

Surely the AWPA have a duty of care to their members, to address any fears they may have in their flying.

I'm not saying there are'nt plenty of other pilots, males included, who are'nt afraid of Bankstown, but that this situation is totally unacceptable and needs addressing on a regular basis.

Incompetence in an aircraft is a danger to everyone else, not just the pilot.
