Unlicenced Pilots - oh dear oh dear , what a problem !

Kharon,

how many pilots do you reckon are now sh**ing themselves because they obtained their endorsements from a person who was described in the "Australian" as "a doctor-shopping, law-breaking, medically unfit pilot"



"The Australian" went on to discuss:
  • a serious breakdown in communications and regulatory systems
  • a lack of responsiveness and disclosure by those in aviation who had witnessed his antics.
so, how many of Barry's former proteges and "mates" are absolutely confident right now that CASA will not wilt under the increasing blowtorch of public opinion, and pull a few of those endorsements?

and what about the insurance policies, how many of those will the insurers void for lack of "approved" endorsements????

Wait until the whole Coroner's report is released, the story in "The Australian" barely scratched the surface!

Remember that at least one Insurer had a barrister AND a Queens Council attending the Inquest !

cheerio for now
