3 excellent posts!! Indeed General Aviation in Sri Lanka has suffered due to unsuitable/incompetent authority at CAASL. This issue has to be put right, if aviation in this country is to prosper.
We need suitably qualified Aviators (ex or current), allocated to the proper positions at CAASL. We need active decision makers who understand the requirements of aviation in this country and will act according to the need of the hour.
Politics aside, if this basic requirement can be established, Srilankan Airlines, Mihin Lanka, the Airforce and General Aviation will indeed prosper leaps and bounds!!
The time is right but will the right decisions be taken??
