Refer FAA charter compared to CASA's charter....They dont give s....t, nor do they have to!!!.
Now consider a bureaucracy with no constraints, totally unaccountable, even to the law and staffed to a large extent by incompetent imberciles and one see's the seeds of rampant endemic corruption.
There are some very fine people in CASA, Its a tragedy that their efforts to foster and encourage the industry are treated with contempt by their masters, with clueless ministers who would rather abrogate their responsibilities and stick their heads in the sand.
CASA as an organisation is now so corrupt only a royal commission has any hope of sorting it out, which aint gunna happen, because the big boy's in the industry have the political clout, and money, to keep them at bay. The little bloke aint got a snowballs chance in hell of generating any sort of political momentum for change, so things will continue on that slippery slope to oblivion.
It was good while it lasted
