As I have kinda mentioned earlier the Govt haven't got any intensions of changing Aviation despite some good people behind the scenes batting for us. You see they (the Govt) have an authority/body to look after the industry (CASA/ATSB etc) so they (Govt) simply don't have any reason to look at it, figure out a fix & implement it, all to hard considering they are all but finished on a much larger overall scale.

Private sectors own the Airlines as well as the major landing fields paying taxes the last thing any Govt wants to do is cut off the hand that feeds them.
Any aviation voters whom the current Govt 'might' get to vote for them if they did fix the ugly aviation industry mess would probably still not vote for them as there's plenty of other ugliness that the current Govt is handing out to hard working Aussies to make 99% of voters spit on their voting cards on election day.

It's a no win situation, aviation like a lot of other industries will flounder in this rudder-less country for many generations to come.

Remember WE put them there, right or wrong it's a democratic society that's simply not working for the common man on the street!

God 'elp us we need another ice age!
