Is there any way you can anonymously tip off CASA/NTSB to investigate gross safety protocol violations?
REPCON - Aviation Confidential Reporting Scheme
"REPCON is a voluntary confidential reporting scheme. REPCON allows any person who has an aviation safety concern to report it to the ATSB confidentially. Protection of the reporter's identity and any individual referred to in the report is a primary element of the scheme.
Any matter may be reported if it endangers, or could endanger the safety of an aircraft. These matters are reportable safety concerns.
Examples include:- unsafe scheduling or rostering of crew; or
- crew or aircraft operator bypassing safety procedures because of commercial pressures; or
- non compliance with rules or procedures."
But then there is the problem of the enevitable witch hunt that ensues within the company.
If the CAA are investigating, that will start with an Audit - and they will pay particular attention to the areas reported. The company may never realise that someone
"dropped a dime" on them - and even if they do they will be too busy with the investigation.
If found out, your reputation is tarnished and you effectively become a martyr for the sake of Safety standards.
Rubbish - You overestimate the influence of a small, recognised dodgy, operator in the market. There simply isn't any "network of bosses" getting together to swap "black files" on new pilots.
The only guys who might listen to a whinge are the same type of small, dodgy operator - the good guys will probably applaud their downfall (and unfair competition) rather than care about the cause of it.
