T28 sees it as 'straight'...no wriggle room?
I beg to differ, the permutations of what some are allowed to do, but not others are many. 206 has got more wriggles in it than a bait tin.
Some folk got prosecuted for 'regular charter', others didnt. At least the good Mr Fice has put that sham to bed.!!
Depends on whether yr local FOI 'had a bad night' or is feeling a bit pumped with testosterone today or whatever, does it??? Or a competitor co. wants a favor from a mate?
Inconsistency is CASAs other name.!
So not only is 206 a bloody shambles... its unlawful. !!
Azzure sees potential. CASA only sees CONTROL, the POWER, the PAPERWORK (their employment) and the FEES and CHARGES that go with it.
Safety is irrelevant in the regulatory context.
Its what we all strive for (to keep our ar$e intact), but "safety" for CASA is just a buzz word for bull****ting politicians for more bucks.
Pray do tell...what is the "safety benefit" if the diffence in any operation is only that some money was made.
And nobody has yet been able to tell me... what is it that a CPL does on a flight from A to B that differs from a PPL?. Same hrs, same aeroplane, same box of fish.
Which is SAFER ??? And WTF has "commerce" got to do with it...Or CASA.?
