"Naturally the Civil Aviation Safety Authority regrets any inconvenience to Territory air travellers ... "

Unbelievable!!

Since when did CASA give a sh..t about to anything except directors bonuses?.
The rumour mill has it that this came about because an ex employee, now working for CASA had a disagreement with the head of check and training over whether the CP under check passed his IR or not,
So the disgruntled ex employee failed them both.
Much the same technique used to shut down Airtex at BK and tiger, knock out the key persons and their screwed.
I think this whole thing has suddendly been resolved because CASA realised there was going to be some rather bad press coming their way.
Why anyone would invest money in Aviation in Australia under the current arrangements fails me. Which perhaps explains the stampede of aviation business to NZ.
