History and all that.

Speaking of legal gospel:-Phelan-Polar Aviation - This what Barrier are trying to deal with. It's a tough road to travel.

Opinion. In effect, CASA’s lawyer is claiming that its officers can do what they like to whomever they like, using the cloak of respectability of “safety” under s9A (1) of the Civil Aviation Act, with impunity and at the discretion and subjective opinions of the officials concerned, with a total disregard to any person’s personal or business rights, no matter how trivial (or negligently false) the alleged “safety” issue might be, and no matter how devastating the effect any such heavy handed action might have on an individual or business.

Is this the way any industry should be regulated?
I just wonder where it was all hidden during the Hempel mess?, next up in the Coroners court.
