Defenestrator,
Yes, indeed a good thread. It is indeed true that CASA do require full EOSID analysis for RPT operations, so, in speaking to an Australian, I'm preaching to the already converted. CASA are not alone in demanding a high standard of operators in this area, there are many other high standard regulatory authorities, but sadly, there are numerous regulators and operators around the world who merely pay 'lip service' to meeting these requirements with little auditing of conduct of operations in this area. Tick in the box stuff!
