Unhappy

Very sad to see that we are back to that again, IF it is good enough for the rest of the World, it should be good enough for Australia.

Australia has always LED the World in Aviation Safety, why do WE have to be dragged down to the lowest level now.

People are quoting what is "good enough" in other Countries, I take it these are obviously foreign registered Aircraft?

With an Australian registered Aircraft operating off shore, as an example the numerous AWAS Aircraft that used to be wet leased out, a local LAME trained by AWAS always does each turnround OR an AWAS LAME goes with the Aircraft to do it.

Why on Earth do we have to reduce our safety standards to the lowest common denominator just to save a few dollars.
