The Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines
It seems that the great expectations generated by the creation of the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines(CAAP) is not going to be met in the near future. The Aviation industry is still waiting for some semblance of leadership of the office in such area as aviation safety, efficiency in airport operations, good public service and in providing long range direction to an industry that has so much potential in the economic development of this country.
To wit, how is the CAAP addressing the findings and recommendations of the FAA and ICAO regarding our airport operations? Will we regain our Category I status? The downgrade to Category II had dire effects particularly on the transpacific operations of PAL.
