From CAO 82 Approval of Chief Pilot
The appointment may be approved only if the person has:
(a) in the opinion of CASA, maintained a satisfactory record in the conduct or
management of flying operations;
Note - in the opinion of CASA, not the opinion of the pilot group so keep your muzzles on lads.
Have confidence in your regulator that the opinion will be based on a thorough review of past appointments and 'fulsome' auditing.
