Thats our "regulator" ! Had the outfit that created this schemozzle been a smaller operator without airline connections..it would have been all over for them.
AOC cancelled, CP approvals cancelled, pilots not "fit and proper", licences withdrawn. Finito the lot.!
Was interesting to see how ABC put it all together.
And even more fascinating to see the very highly paid head honchos of both agencies, giving their cringeworthy performances.
For the money, the industry should get better than that.
But with CASA ( because of prior histories) at least we know we wont get better than that. Its CYA 101 in full swing.
Thats the nature of the beast....and what we have to live with.. unfortunately.
