A short while back, we decided the Crown's way of doing things just didn't suit us....after a try at making salt water tea and some rather intense discourse....we kicked off a new approach to governance. It was founded on freedom and separation of powers so that inbred idiot offspring can not take power by mere rights of birth. We have to elect our idiots but at least it is the majority rule that does so.

Ours is a simple system if you understand it.....but one thing foreigners must understand....we don't care how you do it in Picadilly. We happen to like our own way of doing business.

One of the facets of our way of life here is we seek ways to make things happen....rather than seeking ways to frustrate progress.

Public Use operators generally exceed the requirements of the law and thus provide good value for cost in a safe manner. But then we see the law as being the minimum standard rather than try to write laws to cover every possible event.

Nick and I have had arguments about the role public use agencies should play but then he is in the business of selling helicopters where I see it from a taxpayers perspective.
