You have NO idea of the 'legal' lay of the land for Australian controllers post incident or accident
ARFOR,

Actually, I do, and obviously quite a bit more than you are prepared to give me credit for ----- and that is the whole point of my last post.

Because of the way Australian law has been constructed, ATC persons here are at much greater personal and professional legal risk than in many countries, with which we would compare ourselves. My reference to Civilair was not a mistake.

Sadly, the same goes for pilots and LAMEs, with out complex, convoluted and contradictory framework of criminal law ( and the ridiculous extensions of "strict liability" beyond any reasonable traditional concept of criminal behavior) surrounding just about everything we do.

Direct No Speed

I have absolutely no idea what you are on about.

Owen,

Why don't you try to make a constructive contribution, instead of you usual snide remarks, and you pathetic attempts to play the man and not the ball.

Bloggs,

All Government policy making is political, that's how the system works, and always has done.

Tootle pip!!
