Merged: The Ambidji Report – CASA should get their money back!

[Frank Arouet]

Caused in part by incessant (and unnecessary) mucking around with what used to be a simple, straightforward, easily understood airspace system

Capn Bloggs;

Maybe: But you ignore a succession of government’s with a culture of NOT supporting general aviation in this Country because there are no votes in it for them, an apathetic industry, over regulation and under representation, prescriptive knee jerk reactions to problems that don’t exist, an indolent-incompetent and aggressive Regulator, increasing maintenance costs, mandatory paperwork requirements, training issues, medical bastardry, regulatory corruption, cronyism, decreasing aircraft ownership, ownership costs, threats of forced technology with no appreciative benefit, ASIC, AVID, with associated perpetual costs, petty changes such as security locking devices, the security controlled airports farce, wasted taxpayers money with aggressive and adventurist legal pursuits and increasing costs to maintain and increase the bureaucracy may have something to do with it as well.

Finally something peculiar to Australian aviation, an over opinionated population of so called professional demigod’s who can’t get over the idea that they don’t own the entire sky and enthusiastically vilify and defame others may have an opinion that clashes with their own agendas. The same experts who can’t quiet grasp the concept of divide and conquer. A concept that those who are the main cause of the problems are exploiting.
