Thanks guys,
I'm expecting to hear from the ICAO regional offices in Africa.
Considering that it is an arm of the UN, it will be quite interesting to know the kind of due diligence they carryout on their aviation contractors in the region.
I hope Cathaybrat was mistaken when he stated
'he had to explain how to carry out an NDB approach to a British Airline crew'.
I'll be really worried if he's implying that British trained crew
are not trained to be able to handle a procedural NDB. Approach. Besides, it is all detailed out in the jepps chart.
The objective is to hear factors and solutions to the safety problem in the AFI region. As well as the most realistic first steps to addressing the problem. Currently a proposal for regional integration and harmonizing regs. Even the arch rivals and former colonialist have realized , it's best to team up into the EU and EASA.
India is more populous and more divers than the entire AFI region and yet operates a single policy and regulator.
