fish Wonders of the FAA (compare with CASA)

Just reading on another forum on the efficiencies of the American FAA. Congress ordered the FAA to reregistering all civil aviation aircraft. One of the pilots who did it reported that . . .

"I did my registration on line in a few minutes and paid by credit card. I received the new registration in about 5 days. I thought that was pretty amazingly efficient for a government entity. Also pretty painless and the $5.00 fee seemed reasonable to me (equivalent to about $0.50 in 1970's money)."

Five bucks to register an aircraft and the paper work arrives in 5 days.

Hmmm seems CASA has some competition in ease, cheapness and speed of service . . . perhaps CASA can undercut the FAA and aim for a say $4 4 day service
