Just read Ben's article. I was aware of the FAA audit previously and that Australia had failed it but I wasn't aware that it was a lobbying effort that kept things going.

Israel is far more important to the USA than Australia yet they failed to convince the FAA that they should be given another chance. I wonder what Australia said that convinced them?

I would have thought that CASA/ATSB/Airservices would be desperately trying to keep it as hidden as possible given the spotlight being thrown around in the Senate at present.
