CASA 2012 Trough Figures (and some tautology)

I have handpicked some gems from the 192 pages of the CASA 2012 annual reprt. It is total ****e. There is to much baloney to post here, take a look for yourself, but Mr Hawke has excelled himself. For the taxpayer out there reading my brief snippets or simply interested in perusing the full document I warn you that when you see where your hard earned money is going you may feel a little testee.
Some gems:

1. Almost 200 pages of crap.
2. Lots of robust colour background pictures and other non essential distracting bollocks.
3. Many bloated, spun and stretcccccccched figures and stats.
4. They left out any mention of $200 million and 23 years of failed reform (wonder why?).
5. Some interesting stats on bloated salaries, bonuses and trough treats.
6. And the achievements they made. A robust three ticks for almost everything they touched!! I would love to know who did the grading?
7.When you crunch a lot of the numbers it is interesting to see where a lot of that extra $89 million dollar trough top up coin is going!

Page 3
Developing aviation safety standards and guidance material, and implementing regulatory changes.FAIL

Page 7 Mission
To enhance and promote aviation safety through effective regulation and by encouraging the wider aviation community to embrace and deliver higher standards of safety. FAIL
Values and Goals. FAIL

Page 12: Board ‘wank word’ highlights:
Underpinning
Core systems
Efficiencies
They forgot FOLLY

Page 15 Statement:
Updating the rules is part of the continual improvement of safety; rules cannot remain static—as safety knowledge and understanding improves, the rules must evolve to reflect better safety practices and to incorporate new technology. Developing and implementing new standards and regulations are a key priority for CASA. In April 2012, the Operations Regulations Implementation Division was established to oversee and facilitate the transition to new regulations.FAIL

Page 17: Outcomes not achieved

1) The aerodrome audit program fell behind schedule due to factors such as widespread flooding and staff illness and absence. CASA’s Airspace and Aerodrome Regulation Division ismaking progress to get the audit schedule back on track.

2) The Office of Airspace Regulation planned to complete the national review of group/sectorstudies by the end of June 2012. Five of these studies are undergoing review and have not beenfinalised. CASA expects the remaining studies to be completed by the end of October 2012.

3) Due to some technical challenges in the integration of CASA systems, the web gateway project that was planned for 2011–12, to allow applicants to apply and pay for their regulatory services, was suspended. The future progress of this project will be dependent on the replacement of CASA’s Aviation Industry Regulatory System. FAILS

Maybe the Senators can chew over the executive salary figures as they grill them in the Senate and wonder why they earn more than the Senatros?

And yes, the shiny glossy brochure does make good toilet paper. Just make sure you tear out the staples first!
