Chuckles asks "How can Mr Bertram be so, apparently, ignorant about GA security in places like the UK?"
Good question Chuck when Mr Bertram claims to have spent 18 years in the RAF flying in the UK. Whether he was flying by his own hand or in an aircraft flown by somebody elses hand I do not know.
I does seem though from the Hansard (I note marked "Draft") that there was a certain lack of preparation and even basic knowledge of the committee's interests associated with Mr Bertrams visit to Melbourne.
