Warren will be pushing for an enquiry post September 14th
Get real!

Warren Entsch and many others have been pushing for an enquiry for more than a decade, through both Coalition and Labour Governments. Warren had contact with John Anderson (Minister for Transport 1998 - 2005) and is close to Warren Truss (Minister for Transport 2005 – 2006) but was unable to establish an any form of enquiry or even influence CASA actions and policies during those years.

As Creampuff indicates, Warren Entsch knows an enquiry into CASA will never happen. There is absolutely no votes in an enquiry.

The problems go back to the early 1990, post Leroy Keith, but an enquiry will never happen. Governments never have a broad spectrum, uncontrolled enquiry into one of their own Authorities. The Skull's contract won't be renewed and he will drift off into the sunset with his golden hand shake, another will accept the poison chalice and destruction of the Australian aviation industry will continue unabated.

Facts of life: Barrier's AOC no longer exists and Barrier is consigned to the history of Australian aviation. Many operators, good and bad, have been wiped out by CASA over the last 20 years and there will be many more yet to be destroyed in the future.

And there is at least another couple of Directors of Aviation Safety in the regulatory review. Eventually a Director will declare it "a living document, continually evolving to meet the ever changing demands of contemporary aviation" thus removing any need to end the process and guaranteeing careers in perpetuity for many new generations of incompetents unable to hold a real job in aviation.

That is life. If you think any differently you are dreaming!
