We'll tell you what you have put in place is inadequate, but won't tell you what would suffice, just better luck next time...

We'll make sure that instead of prepping to fly, doing planning, making bookings, doing route study, delivering quality briefings, that all of that is compressed to a nano-particle size compared to the 'safety adding' activity of running around getting MAA approvals.
We reserve the right to change our mind and move the goalposts, almost in a manoeuvrist approach to stopping you go flying, by remaining so unpredictable and lacking in overall policy, that any staff work completed more than 2 months ago will almost always need repeating.
