"A Chief Pilot has some heavy duty backup available if the operator won't play nice; CASA supervised operations for a month or so would very quickly get the message across"
If it was the FAA that is the more likely scenario.They are always reluctant to shut down what could be a viable business and throw innocent parties out of work.
It would be a brave chief pilot in OZ who sought CASA help, because they'd crucify him as well as the company.
CASA simply dont give a toss, we are all criminals anyway, as long as they get their bonuses, promotion and at the end a fat super, why would they be interested in fostering the industry they get paid whether their competent or not.
