CASA problems

CASA weary

Good work - keep it up. It is important for this information to get out into the public arena for scrutiny. It would be great if others could give further examples of this gross malfeasance.

An example of how this can be dealt with is in the CAA's at:

20AC Purported issue of authorisation

(1) A person must not purport to give a civil aviation authorisation for the purposes of the regulations unless the person is authorised under those regulations to give the authorisation.

Penalty: Imprisonment for 2 years.

(2) Without limiting subsection (1), a person is to be taken to give an authorisation for the purposes of that subsection if the person endorses the authorisation on another document (for example, endorses a rating on a licence or in a log book).

--------------------------------------------------------------------
The effect of this is two fold, as the use of any document, where the Reg [CAR] is not correctly used should expose the person who is incorrect to 20AC and this is not just about "flight strips" but all "authorisation"
