Well, I'm not sure it is. Sdruvss is crediting this person with being the source for NTSB/CENIPA reports, published ICAO documents, and articles written in The Controller (under a pseudonym, of course) as a senior official/member of IFATCA; as well as being able to influence the views of the Flight Safety Foundation president, ditto mutatis mutandis for the Royal Aeronautical Society, the International Federation of Airline Pilots' Associations, the Civil Air Navigation Services Organisation; and last but not least able significantly to influence the deliberations of the Brazilian Parliament's CIP committees.
That is not character assassination, that is praise of the highest order for his political skills!
