EASA is only an assistant rule maker. They have shuffled rules from a variety of sources, largely unchecked, those who have acted on the NPAs are largely unqualified to do so, and there is no safety input or understanding within the system. The political clowns above them have a naive belief that common regulation will lead to a common level of safety; it will, based on the lowest common denominator, then what? Who will take note of AAIB recommendations in the future, the CAA will be powerless?
