Further to my last on the DCA days, (Dept Civil Aviation), most probably thought of them as over bearing twits just back from the war with nice facial hair. The thing was however they did have a measure of respect. Something the CASA lost years ago.
Not liking not being liked, they persue the stratagey of "the floggings will continue until morale improves".
Blokes like Bob Jarvis educated first and prosecuted as a last resort.
Prosecutions should be removed from the CASA duties and handed to the Federal Police if an audit is failed or a serious safety complaint is received.
CASA have proved incapable of a regulatory review. Until they get that right, they should stay after school until they get it right.
How can they prosecute laws when they can't make them in the first place?
