C Change,


Or do you suggest it is better to continue with your journey, putting yourself and others in danger?
Absolutely not... but knowing if they do own up they will experience the CASA 'please explain' and a possiblity of prosecution is not going to encourage some to do the right thing.. More flys with honey than vinegar. Obviously report blatant stupidity but many of these 'VCA's' are for fairly minor tracking errors where a quick call to one of your guys to explain where they went wrong is really all that's needed.

PS We had an ATPL get the paperwork.. easy for anyone to make a minor mistake... It was very minor but and he did own up - Not sure he will if it happens again...
