All,
I am flabergasted, how could you possibly come to the conclusion that JAR/OPS are the ideal.
Certainly not for pilots, or those who hire them, and have no fear, there is no shortage of control freaks on power trips in FAA, who would love to "harmonise" with JAA.
And not for the aviation industrie's benefit.
The true bureaucrat admires the JAA setup, with little of the irksum "industry input" or interference, that so often sees the more silly FAA proposals buried.
A little matter of not being able to tell the difference between "world's best practice" and "world's most restrictive practice". JAR's are shot full of restrictions that make no Risk Management
(nee:Safety) or Cost:Benefit sense.
Aviation bureaucrat pet wheelbarrows abound.
Why would anybody support shooting themselves in the career prospects foot, by supporting unnecessary and very very expensive restrictions.
