This seems to sum up the problem.
I had a long read of Bill Hamilton's submission. It is thought provoking, and much of it accurately sums up the frustration of dealing with CASA, and the damage CASA has done to Australian aviation. He sees it mainly as a structural problem.
Bill is a retired Qantas captain who has been associated with aviation in Australia and elswhere for about half a century. He no longer has to worry about his next renewal, or endorsements, or dispensations so he can, and does express his opinions freely.(shock horror)
I recommend this to all. Read it. ALL of it. And think about it.
