Slattery Auctions - DirectAir

[PLovett]

outnabout, I believe the judgement is flawed and that President Fisk of the AAT actually got it right. In fact, it is not only flawed but it is a shocker. However, the Federal Court's decision is now precedent and to get it overturned someone will need to take a case up to the Federal Court of Appeal. That, obviously, will not be Directair so it will be up to some other poor sucker who gets the rough end of CASA.

The problem lies in that the current regulations are such a mess that they can be made to say anything that someone thinks they should say. Whether the new regulations (that are approaching, what, 25 years old now?) will rectify anything I don't know. But, for pity's sake, should distance be a deciding factor as to whether a flight is a closed charter or not?
