It would seem that the Australian experiment with EASA has been an abject failure in delivering what the original "brief" called for.
It would also seem that EASA themselves are having trouble making their reg's work given the level of complaint from industry in Europe. Shouldn't Australia look at realigning ours?
I have read it would be impossible for us to copy FAA reg's due to the incompatibility between our legal systems, is this true?
NZ's legal system had the same roots as ours, British Law, would it be easier to adopt their reg's? they seem to work very well.
I have also heard that regulations in Australia cannot be written in plane language because of our legal system, yet the Kiwi reg's are, why is this?
Why has it cost over $250 million for our reg's yet I'm told not much more than $5 million for the Kiwi reg's?
Does Australia achieve better safety outcomes than compatible countries?
