Folks,
If the TIGER advertisements in last Friday's Australian are anything to go by, CASA is concerned that Tiger doesn't meet the local industry (CASA directed) norms or level of chairwarmers, and "overheads" drones generally.

ie Administrative services provided (undoubtedly very "economically") from Singapore must be provided locally ????

After all, the CASA statements have said that it is not a matter that is likely to ground the operation, which I presume means that CASA IS satisfied with the day to day operations and maintenance.

Maybe the "compliance issues" are all about the CASA version of compliance with the huge weight of administrative minutiae that is unique to Australian aviation regulation.

Tootle pip!!
